AN INELEGANT VERSE
by Joanna Gilman Hyde
The Hawk Deck Steps 2:10pm
It’s in The Water
I drink
Which grows Algae
in The Toilets
but doesn’t make Me sick
It’s in The Water
in motion against
The Shore
Which I can’t live without —
without It I’d be sick —
It’s in The Water
from The Sky
without It We’d
All Die
