Tidal Pull
tongue at low tide under hot sun dry and heavy
try to speak & words sink in thick-soled
awkward squelch to pull them up and out
to speak toward the island of your ears
somewhere between the mind and mouth
scissors sharp & hungry
cut these thoughts to pieces
for you
to paste together & you, my lighthouse, do
