mutiny (Free verse) by Bill Z Bub
I'm off to sea
now that the singular days of summer
the hard light days
the blinding white rays
are here.
barefoot
inevitable
slipping
the stowaways barely move
under the weight of invisible galactic terror
polly is calling
captain future come in captain
future
can't you read me?
entwined in ripe planks,
a crow's nest
above
the black freighter
my lifeboat
constructed from
cadavers of
faulty reasoning.
guilty / not guilty
your honour.
you saw but the vaulting crater'd backs
of secret sea beasts.
looks like its to be the pirate's life
for me
not guilty by (voided)
reason
of in-
san-
ity.
