just a point man in the ocean by Vaughan Gunson


just a point man in the ocean

holding a piece of rope



which starts at one point

on the shore, arcs out towards



the black island rocks, their skirts

of white foam billowing up



like Marilyn Monroe�s dress

long ago, or yesterday



distracted by what�s beneath

the ocean, to go down diving for



� screams
of children



bring me back, a chorusrising high with each
