A Swim

for Tony Shin


It’s a poolside coup
chutes against blades
flowers usurping branches
terrorist cells of vines and
the great chlorinated liana menace
all dead and floating
until, pale knees against chest,
the cannonball explodes!

  2. You have a wide imagination and you write poem so good that it can make me imagine the scene.
