Bon Voyage (Free verse) by Jeremi B. Handrinos

Sitting here In this lifeboat with you? For four dehydrated foodless weeks... Has taught me a few things. Like, for instance: Blood only agitates one's thirst, more. You cannot make a sundial out of a sunfish even if you were a boyscout. Storms at Sea spill all water collected during them anyway. Ufo's are seen more prevalently when you're afloat, dying. The Femur is the largest bone in the human body, and very hard to remove while it's still being used. Whether, as a makeshift mast/Calander/ Dayplanner-Rolodex. Or a sunspun lukewarm appetizer. It will leave you thinking as it left me, thunk. "They even got flies out here looking for a free hand out." Aint it a small world after all? Just before it swallows you entirely. Without a trace, or conscious opinion. No Judge No jury Only the sound of your own voice Helping you, Swallow you, down. More energy for the waiting. to be rescued. Less to be appreciated If found.
