Billy
working off boats and barges
living from pelicans' bills
Bill is a parody
A sailor in feel
A Writer in kind
lying on floors
truthful in mind
turns when the tide falls
trips on the rocks he climbs
who helped him out
dragged him back to his real land
watery shimmery moving around
Now he's familiar on his shifting ground.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE THE ONES YOU TOLD OF.
