| <b>To you <br /> |  | ||||||
| </b> |  | ||||||
| <p> |  | ||||||
|   I’ve made markings on the shore <br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| You’ll have to go there, before <br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
|  the next time of high-tide, <br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| If you want to see it - <br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| You know the sea will devour it <br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| Ain’t that like Snapchat without <br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| The electricity? <br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| You have… Twelve hours, <br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| Maybe?<br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| What?<br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| You’re avoiding the beach,<br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| You want to see it on the SnapMap<br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| While you commute on a public bus,<br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| And even then,<br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| You might - might - decide not to give the SnapMap<br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| Any attention,<br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| You’re busy clucking at the bus-driver while<br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| He jerks the bus perversely along?<br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| I don’t trust<br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| You<br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| Nor your fickle<br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| Attention<br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| I- I’ll thank God<br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| For the sea<br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| For the sun<br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| For the wind<br /> |  | ||||||
| 
 |  | ||||||
| For the sand |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| For the little child, shrieking in delight |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| As the waves roll in |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| I’ll pray to God |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| To make me his wife |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| We’ll marry, if He is willing |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| And then, |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| And then, |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| I’ll pray for you, |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| That you’ll have food |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| When you’re hungry |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| And water |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| When you’re thirsty |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| And then, |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| I won’t see you |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| I won’t be on the SnapMap |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| You don’t need to thank me |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| I’m your (unworthy) servant, |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| A hopeful wife of God, |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| Servant of God, |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| Child of God |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| (I don't mind being |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| A door-keeper in God’s house, |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| Either) |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| Not a lioness of God, |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| Sylvia Plath said she was one, |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| And then she committed |  | ||||||
| <br /> |  | ||||||
| Suicide |  | ||||||
