RAPIDO ISLAND POEM
algonkin matala algonkin matala
the train rolls grey lichen grey lichen
the window Ontario my memory it jabs me
the train rolls Santorini
we’re bathing it’s night time
the sea’s phosphorescent
our arms linked together
we dance in the soft light
four strangers all timid
to face all this sweetness
Ontario atlantis algonkin matala
the train rolls my memory the window
it jabs me the ocean at night time
Ontario grey lichen grey lichen grey lichen…
