It never was
And it never will be
Like a bus
Never belonged at sea
But you would
Drive that bus straight down
As if you could
Tell yourself not to drown
So straight to hell
Where you will pay for your sin
Of wishing well
At what you could never win
And I'll bet
You wish it were hotter than hot
To dry all that's wet
Just to give it another shot.

Sink your feet in it
Let it sift between your toes
What sand was made for
A coarse, fine contradiction
You are not soon forgotten
2024.6
Little wet kisses
Carried on a salty sigh
I'm lost on the beach
Where the foam's between my toes
And there's a hole in my heart
2024.4
Warm sand 'tween my toes
A naked sun to gaze at
My little island
There is peace in the breeze here
Better alone than lonely
2024.3
Many years later
The salty air on my tongue
Brings back memories
The waves and the setting sun
Your lips and their melody
2024.2
The water was still
And the skies were clear and blue
When it went over
A bruised heart over the rails
Lost to the Siren's soft song
2024.1
The Siren sings here
A sweet and lively number
That excites the crowd
But there's ice under the waves
She sings not for you or me
2023.78
Rustle of bedsheets
The soft, wet warmth of breathing
Summer together
Wanting
She seems polite or
Wanting something from inside
Yet he doesn't see
(written collaboratively with Alex Duquette on the Profoundish Podcast)
Yesterday
If we had one more time
To do it a different way
Would we still be here
Only remembering yesterday?
