Poem 12

And the sound keeps crashing against my head
And my brain is tumbling, tumbling
I tuck it under
I tuck it under.
Swallow me up, take me over, black me out, seep in like water
Now it’s over, it’s over.
And the light it crashes against my face
And my eyes they’re opening, opening
But you’re already under, you’re under
And these waves yeah they churn, caress and bend
Well I tuck it under
Yeah these waves well they mold and crack me send
me over, now it’s over.
