the tugboat

guilt
the cargo weighing down the boat

hate
hawks flying in circles above, lurking, waiting to eat their prey

hope
the crack in wood, water seeking in

fear
land is far away

desolation
the oars cannot defeat the waves

anxiety
sinking ship, fish jumping in the boat

suffering
the fish weighing down the boat (along with the cargo)

despair
the boat is sinking

opportunity
letting go of the cargo and learning how to swim

@charlie
tugboat fiction is a synthesis of the absurd/non sequitur with a serious attitude towards the ethics and aesthetics.

or something like that.

I had an epiphany about a personal crisis right at the end of yr poem... I'm still at fear though... ther's no skipping it. Natural transition.
