13th Ocean

Huatulco

By Paul BeckettPublished 5 years ago 1 min read
13th Ocean Float

The earths rarest plane. Hardly a mound.

Ploughed seams that stretch past level.

Bound by concrete, submariner scripture.

Views from the mild undulations mimic.

The molehills unflattering comparison.

Mild subliminally, in politeness rumoured.

Candy coat intolerance doesn’t sweeten.

The land in mercy to the oceanic caster.

Figure of eight motions, buoyant banter.

Memorise the pretty candour. Lofted life....

The synapse scraper. Treasure binder!

Odd for a reason, not even enough stuff.

Abacus beads clink as moneys lossless.

Toys for frustration, causality distraction.

This number is clean, uniquely thirteenth!

Too rooted for squared, no random pairs.

Not dissection refraction, a remainder,

Enabler. Pink hues, perplex synesthesia.

Symbolic and lean, a cursed indivisible.

Snuck in through the side step, beaten,

No menu digestive, nested, sure footed.

No blustering fluster. Invented clustered.

Manic ballerina, blessed stage of Athena. I’ve seen her.
