Two Poems
He’s as deep as The Mariana Trench (when it writes poetry)
He’s all about that darkness
and what we still don’t know,
mysterious
like someone on an app
inviting you to meet
to drown
in their self-regard.

You breathed the sea once
and did not die;
you read coral lines of drama;
single cell organisms
rewarded with caves
and all that darkness
he hasn’t earned.

Nowhere near.
