6437. YOU MAY HAVE MISGIVINGS

YOU MAY HAVE MISGIVINGS
Playing cards with knife-wielding gents can
sometimes end you up dead : meow the cat and
bark the dog, moo the cow and oink the pig.
-
The silver sheen is atop the bay  -  still water
and shoreline quiet. A few lone souls are walking
with a basket -  picking sea-glass, ocean shells,
tidal things washed up. Dogs run loose.
-
Casino frontage and two large boats. Things pile
up and no one speaks. I am isolated in a furnace
of cherry-wood burn. If someone were to ask me
of a 'future'  -  I'd say 'I do have misgivings, but
give it a try.' No sense in skinning another cat,
and  -  anyway  -  how many worlds can we kill?
