Elucidating Questions

Silence

Knows why I don’t believe him

Sits silent

Are we bracing ourselves for the impact of the dreams?

The shattered remains

But there were so many whales.

I don’t know who I swam with,

But it was different than I’ve ever seen

I was able to breathe the air and the water

His presence was brief.

I’ll try to focus

On the beautiful orca I made friends with

And the grey whales that swam beneath

Like great islands beneath the waves
