Shell Out

backwards drawl
into the stagger
wager
my pager -
bent out into lakes
all right
alright.

no need,
i wrote it
in another lifetime

(i might be a child, run a mile).

but this night
with this soft light
telling me
alright
i am a peace
of ocean rhthym
finally being lines:
cross the finish rhyme
i can shell out
not sell out
for sense of stream exudes
esteems.
