SEA BREEZE Part Two

2.
that’s why we chose
to be in body in the first place
or be in her
                             in grace of union,
and no word said,
                                      I am the hum of whom
she has chosen,
                                 small trout
busy in her stream,
broken kayaks litter her backyard,
                                                                             capisce?
I didn’t, I thought he wrote capsize
and laughed,
                             he slugged me
the way they do, men,
                                                and I was only ten
or something, who knows
how old anybody really is.
