drift, unrudder drift

on the drift, unrudder
since lilac scented at
fisherman's wharf
in a pinch of snuff

the bouys no longer
ring warnings, love
before boats break
against the rocks

rain pierces waves
at the unrudder drift

    I wouldn’t trust the bouys anyway.

      Thank you! I generally don’t participate “by the rules” and I respond in the comments instead of emulating, so I hope that doesn’t bother you.

      I appreciate the nomination. 💕

        It bothers me not in the least. I’m a “color outside the lines” kind of gal, myself. 🙂
