by the blue pool surrounded by red ceramic
the lifeguard more interested in the shade
even if it means standing on the wrong side
of the fence near the animator
what marks my eye
adults not able to swim
children not able to go under
without a hand clenching
their nose for life
if the noise of the speakers were
directly proportional to the animation
then not even the pool’d be needed
for entertainment
loves to hear the sound of his voice
death grip on the mic, not even a dj
rambeling on and on
like a radio channel you always switch through
chimpanzees in the water like
trying to cross an ocean
looking like monkeys
prefer to be on tip toes walkin, wading, bathing
if you were never taught how
you would simply do it too
like th shit music the poor dj plays
