poem - "the Aquanaut"

 

the Aquanaut

 

Sure, we want nice even tans

to sail a frolic world

 

but why is there no post-ironic

air in here, friend?

 

There are you again

if I knew more than I would

 

where once I was a pilgrim

geraniums grow in the garden

 

So you hear a sound so sweet  

distant as a soapstone mantle

 

a fragrant illustrious scene

fresh green shoots cool water

 

A postmodern world, mountain buddy

Why is the air shut off?
