shallow water here about
takes several eons to wade out
to anything substantial
time I can't afford to spend
mind numbing small talk without end
the cost beyond financial
I crave oceans of great depth
enough to sail and dive bereft
of constant fear
the bottom's near
full of mysteries to plumb
adventure beyond ken of sun
where darkest night
to hope gives flight
that I just might
perceive your light
