lyrics

Here is a shim
to hold this chest
open at the heart
against the tide,
the dispiriting tide.

Oh, brother at sea, didn’t I tell you?
I am going to fail you.
Time enough, I will let you down.

I fold over my knees
and press my face
down into the rug
and see you diving,
perfect genderless form.

Oh, brother at sea, don’t you believe me?
I will marshall my thinking.
Like a fool, I’ll forget to breathe,
but I will return to the harbor.
I will seek you again.
I will return to the harbor.
I will seek you—
