Submarine

Submarine

Dollar-signs submerge moon-shrill dreams,
like blue crabs in a fishnet that is too big.

Ah, quiet curtains gloss the page.

I tell her, she has oysters instead of toes.
She says, “Look up.” I can’t.

The 'etaphors are too bright.
There are no sunflowers in her eyes.

Yes, I can breathe again.
