The Cold Blue Solid Sea by Ray Waugh, Jr.

"THE COLD BLUE SOLID SEA"

"The Cold Blue Solid Sea"
I remember. Yes, I remember ...
Pain, love, that tree ... that
Time, now, yet generations past.

"The Cold Blue Solid Sea"
I remember on that day.
"Yes, I will," I said,
"That shark-less swim is for me."

"The Cold Blue Solid Sea"
I remember. "I remember" is somehow
NOW! Like plankton ...
Green plankton in the "The Cold Blue Solid Sea"

"The Cold Blue Solid Sea"
My solid mud is caught between
Me and
"The Cold Blue Solid Sea"

"The Cold Blue Solid Sea"
Dark ... the shadows of
My "The Cold Blue Solid Sea."
White vapors all around me.

Won't somebody thaw me.
    They can't hear! They missed
"The Cold Blue Solid Sea."
    So alone I'll be till someone forgets to
    pay
           the
               electric
                   fee!
