Committed

A flash point in ocean 
becomes omnivorous
eating the boats.

The sharks unstick and 
sleep on waves
for another abeyance.

Sitting on the wheels 
of a tank,
men waited for the revolution to scoop 

a scorched motherhood
where the children
were becoming missiles.

The light moves in circle
to find the mirrors
on a blue horse.
