Penelope
My starboard eyes
fix on glimmering constellations.
The swan, the dragon, the scales
gaze back toward wayward sails
and my limerent contemplations.

You're a candle underwater,
my favorite flickering paradox.
A beacon always burning
despite the impossibility,
despite my course through scabrous rocks.

Warm winds rest upon my shoulders
like your silk-wrapped arms.
I'm entranced by embraces of the past.
Home to trace astral letters
and write poems with the stars
as I scan ocean vistas from atop the leaning mast.
