it's around noon . . .
frog & i
are just sitting here

rocking me to sleep:
the boat
rocked by the tide

low tide . . .
the whaler's rotted bow
rises out of the surf

still in makeup
two clowns talk business
over coffee

quase meio-dia . . .
sapo & eu
só sentando aqui

embalando-me para dormir:
o barco
embalado pela maré

maré baixa . . .
a proa apodrecida do baleeiro
emerge das ondas

ainda com maquiagem
dois palhaços falam de negócios
durante o café
