Davy Jones: Do you fear… death? Do you fear that dark abyss? All your deeds laid bare, all your sins punished? —Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest 2006 ALONE IN GLASS BOTTOM Alone in glass bottom, with plankton underneath - boat’s in midriff of sea. I’ve plenty of water. Sink or swim - am I free? Alone in glass bottom Should I write a message? Bottle it up or send…? Could be my last chance to navigate and defend. Alone in glass bottom Should I fish for a shark and devour great white fin - drive it deep in my heart? Would that too be a sin? Alone in glass bottom swirling last gulp of rum, the famous Davy Jones frees the gold…and I grieve, as the deep binds my bones. 4/6/2022 Contest: Form M - Monchielle Sponsor: Constance La France Theme: Ocean/Sea RhymeZone and HowManySyllables.

A glass bottom; a glass house; life is a sail, more precarious for those with fragile faith. Excellent write!

Thank you, Joe! The danger apparent, visible and when one is alone with their thoughts, their sin magnifies and their apparent treasure holds no real value. Thank you for your collaborative comments! I always enjoy when a reader sees more! You have my mind spinning! Thanks!
