Underwater Explosions
Robert Pollard
while she was down and she opened
crate of secrets
darker than she
underwater explosions
curtains rippling obviously
she can breathe
so stop and try
she can breathe
and the sharks are about to please
she points to me
to exist
in a place this small
and it stings
and certainly that changes things
she points to me
cuffs painted orange with sunburst
lined up side by side
it keeps them so clean
buddy they shine with starlight
darker places I've never seen
she can breathe
so stop and try
she can breathe
and the sharks are about to please
she points to me
to exist
in a place this small
and it stings
and certainly that changes things
she points to me
something passes through me
and the sound will carry me on
and the sound will carry you on
