(mostly) short poems on life and love

her raging seas

May 10, 2022 by Michael Guerin

brush and weeds
burn, transformed into heat
and glowing coals.

i sip a coke
and poke at embers, hoping
to spark a flame.

the sun skates below
a long line of sand pines,
a chill wind blows

smoke in my face
as another faithless day
bleeds into night.

i dream of flight,
of sailing weightless
through blazing skies

beyond horizon’s reach
to finally meet
her raging seas,

and diving deep beneath
blue waves, melt
in her embrace.
