Saturn Parkway

Saturn Parkway
blue water
runs deep
blue water
brings sleep
in the valley
sleep comes easy
in the valley
there is no fear of sharks
and since the battle’s end
the river flows red with blood
the shark has swam upstream
the shark bites everyone

and no one seems to notice
this gaping wound
at my side
the shark bites deep and red
the shark bites until you’re dead
voices carry
and I hear you
watershed
standing room
curtain call
pull it down
I don’t want to
have to need you
where are you now?
