AntiPoetics - Poetry - Shower

Shower

fighting off the cold hands
of a winter white far warmer
than last summer's sullen blue
closing down the shutters
on the storm that whails inside,
swimming with the plastic fish bowl divers
and some plastic pirate treasure
I'm drowning in the starlight
that glimmers from below
in a mirror cast distortion
nevermind the sign post's passing
when we're all off the deep end
hold your head up and breathe
while we bail you out with a paper cup
canceled out by the paper cuts
until the dark pours in
and the world spins like a drain plug
playing at the edge of the spiral
it comes crashing down and
the bones dry on fluffy white
