I was gathering our dirty sheets
to wash out the salty mess
for the fifth time this week,
when he called.
What an honorable gentleman-
to let me rinse the sheets in his purity
when I need a change.
His subtle hook sinks
Through streaming water, to snare
Light bouncing off scales.
or this version--
revised---
Through streaming water,
His subtle hook seeks to snare
Light bouncing off scales.
And I thought you would let me.
Bury my banality in you.
Let my grace show through.
Withered life brought to bloom.
And I thought you could help me.
Soft parts steadily hewn away.
Hard parts left to decay.
Sweetness shaped into servitude.
And I thought you should save me.
And I thought you would let me.
Bury my banality in you.
Let my grace show through.
Withered life brought to bloom.
And I thought you could help me.
Soft parts steadily hewn away.
Hard parts left to decay.
Sweetness shaped into servitude.
And I thought you should save me.
His subtle hook sinks
Through streaming water, to snare
Light bouncing off scales.
or this version--
revised---
Through streaming water,
His subtle hook seeks to snare
Light bouncing off scales.
