Notes About The Poem

Sitting poolside, when two adult men throw themselves into the pool,

probably both have had two much to drink. Trying ti drown each other,

being a lot too silly, until they and their two women get thrown out. 

Can anyone say poet fodder!

Wrestling Whales

*Read note for info

WRESTLING WHALES

the palms over pool
witnesses of crass distress
waves ripple outward
