Heavy SCUBA tanks
As if flying in water
Everywhere blue

  
Dry mouth icky salt

Our trip is planned. There's no going back.
Plane has taken off to the destination.

We arrive. Palm tree, beautiful flowers and 
amazing scenery. We drive to the reason we 
came.

All suited up and ready. The magnificent
ocean just ahead. We arrive and dive in.

Beautiful colors surround us....

I had all my equipment checked.
Everything was laid out on deck.
We were suited for game.
By the time drop off came 
my nerves were totally a wreck.

I went down to the deep blue sea
to see what the sea would show me.
Got the scare of my life,
a...

I made a big mistake when I decided to scuba dive.
I'm caught on some rocks and I may not survive.
It was very foolish of me to risk my neck.
I was looking for a treasure from a shipwreck.
This may be the end, I have very little...

A scuba diver rents a boat
The driver of the boat goes
into the deep water
There he prepares himself
To be ready for the big dive
Then jumps into the deep water



Seeing some fish fish-he swims
Being side by side enjoys

The Scuba Diver 

we look down
signal frantically
‘come up’,
though it is already 
too late

he dances wide eyed
with ecstasy
as the nitrogen 
tickles his cells

anemones
cling to the steep
rock walls
fish feed and dawdle
incuriously

we peer through
our tiny windows
into the ink black sea

as he goes 
free wheeling 
down, 
down,
a rictus of...

In the ocean she swam that day, pure as snow.
She was gorgeous, and her white tail was aglow.
He was confident, thinking his scuba gear was sound.
Never realizing he was in trouble all the way around.

She had an inkling that someone was going to be in...

a thick suit envelopes me
the sun beats down
dang, this is so hot. 
i feel sweat drip 
and wrap around my arms 
my first steps into the cool water 
aww.....love it....
sweet coolness
further i go 
panic rips through 
what happened? 
i don't know, 
my mind goes utterly...

Glaring plunge to sea,

                                      crystal schooling angelfish. ...

Cloudless nights, as moon shines on
Turbulent seas, with tumultuous roar
The echoing sounds of aquatic depths
Called upon me to descend and explore

Goggles in tact, apparatus on back
I witnessed a world beneath the sea
With lives unaffected by the world above
I learned from the fish, it’s just better...

On a cruise ship in the sea
breaking blue waves peacefully,
yet once we land and I descend
the coral moves and shifts and bends.
Out comes something small and sweet
but packing punch; I know I'm beat.
A jellyfish: minuscule and bright
it shocks me and I'm full of light.
Grappling to...

In diving the coast off Aruba,
He thought he would play his best tuba.
The fish thought it odd,
The stingray said “Todd,
That isn’t the way to do scuba.”

Which fish
The scuba diver
Is going after?
The big one
Or the small one?
Which sheriff
Is on trial today?
The petty one
Or the pretty one?
Everyone must have its day
In the Kangaroo Court.
Real justice is not a myth;
It never creates descent or grief.
It a fact that it is easier to execute
The...
