The sign read NO SWIMMING TODAY
The waves crashed as high as Trump Tower
The one in Chicago
The lifeguard was OFF DUTY
The clouds were low ferocious
The lightning struck just as I stroked
The waves frothed and came into me
The water took me furious and grey
The gull reeled encased in glass
The moon shook
The stars broke as my hand reached surface
The end is never predictable my friend -
The toe cramped
There was nothing I could do.
