gasp

I can see you out of the corner of my eye,

hanging around the apex, nothing but bunged up light

out there hanging from the tip of a grecian isle

I tilt my head and you undulate duly,

i'm yours and you are mine truly,

ships sink straight up to high heaven

and all the while you laugh

a shade knows nothing

feels nothing but the pull of its puppet strings

but I swear I saw you move.
