Bring me the tide
-so I may refresh myself
in salt that is worth the effort.
I miss the ocean,
though I haven’t really known it.
Much like I miss myself.
What drowned gods
need I pray to
for exhalation
of the water
beneath my skin
in vapour waves
and almost-touched mist?
Cover my eyes
with a veil of water
so thin
and fragile,
I only see things
a little more clearly
