Stay For Now, Stay

the ship diminishes
into the sunshine
diminishes
into the horizon
that longstretching line
that makes its mark between
dreams and the day
while i stay
hugging a ticktocking bouy
with that in-the-middle-of-nowhere
feeling giving rise
i’m starting to pray
to god, i pray
watching my dreams sail away
and he says, always,
what i need him to say
