a little exercise
(exercise 1 – sorry not sorry)
You saw me at sea.
Everything was
swept up-
in a storm, scattered
Across the sand.
You sighed like you were
on set. Sifted through
the shore searching-
for my shame. You
couldn’t find it.
The sunshine boiled
it into golden glass
And I sipped it all-
Left it to warm
the hollow of my heart.
