black fly, leave me bloody , steal my skin
good try, keeping them off when you’re out swimming
on the sand bar, holding my breath, I saw her
underwater
your pale neck wet and clinging
to your broken necklace sinking
to our feet, shining right between us
I went diving, find it you said keep it
with you
couldn’t see what was underneath
was feeling around with my hands and my feet
and my lungs pressing hard on my chest and my heart
beating like an attack went for air and went back
something like metal above was just grass
something like heaven above was just glass
watch you swinging your legs in the lake’s reflections
can you see me too?
in the rings that ripple round and around and around you
all I want to do
just sink
underwater
