grotto

Drown me
slowly
in the
grotto
off the ravine
behind the river
patiently streaming into
an outlet wave of
seabreeze

Let my knees
bend inward
and my heels
click
audibly

The sirens calling
I can't
seem to see
where she reaches out
and grabs me

She's pulling me in
Out by the spot where we all
swam
and smoked as kids

Tossing and turning
