The main mast of a ship, white
sails cresting distance
in response to it. Carry-
ing on with a list, tries to
carry away, and to dispel it's gasses
on strong trade winds, but can't.
A stain upon the small lead,
green it seems to mine
eye, encircled by a bird
who's flying low, eyeing the ship
with hungry eyes, no irony
and no surprise. It has
a medical meaning in it's wing
feathers. Its fluffy down spreads
particles of preservation. Leaves
trail of picked fish when fly'ng
it lands upon the crows-nest then
alights.
