Infinity Pool
In spite of some expositions asserting the coordinates
of where this universal solvent - unevaluated by the EPA - folds,
I sometimes swim.
Is keeping buoyant believing the water, neither brackish nor shallow,
will shore up a divine incumbent?
Memory recites another one-sided conversation I had with some planet,
which did not know its airtime hung
between a snow emergency declaration and a missing child report.
Cutting short my discussion with what I hoped was a small wave,
I settle to float.
