Waterborne
If poems were pools,
I’d stand aside as you got in,
Afraid, myself, to swim
In your display
For poets are fools,
Inclined to drown in liquid sin,
To tread water on a whim
At your dismay
If rhyme were Fate,
Divined to render tense in hope,
Or flounder here as rote
Emersed in scorn -
Sublime is Weight,
Devised to anchor sense as rope,
So buoyantly afloat
And waterborne
