Leaky Canoe on The Ocean Of Down

Leaky Canoe on The Ocean Of Down

A Poem by Michael Stevens
"

BIG trouble!

"
Doesn't it seem some days you're on you own,

miles from shore, pissed, upset, and weary to the 

bone?


Only a leaky canoe to save you from a plunge into 

deep water.

You're bailing your a*s off, but of your predicament, 

you are the author


as you cry for help on The Ocean Of 

Down,

but, there's no other boaters for miles and miles 

around


The seawater level is rising and seems to laugh and 

taunt you,

'See, Mr Loser, I'm rising, and there ain't a damn thing 

you can do!'


Then, you realize with a start, just how messed up 

you must be,

"I'm imagining this seawater has a voice, and is 

talking to me!'


Then, you realize you're sitting at your computer, 

writing this drivel.

There's no fricking ocean, no fricking canoe, and 

you're not emotionally well!

That's wonderful and sounds like a pro.
I like the choice of words here.
I almost felt as if i were on that leaky canoe.
