"Swimming Alone"

“Swimming Alone”
 
cji
10/26/14
 
Venturing forth each day
finding a suitable pond
without any good amour
jumping in without caring
gators, logs, deadfall
snakes, spiders, glass
swimming alone each
separated by an adversary
untrusting of all others
playing Russian roulette
with a loaded weapon
each Sabbath Day
unknowing where to go
thus going just anywhere
amid the throngs of others
swimming alone in storms
within a suitable pond
each day venturing forth!
