o canoe, maroon canoe 	
over mesmeric waves we row
over an azure ionian sea
over mariners' mum communion
over icarus's un-ascension
over men-o'-war + runner missions
over ice-run ruins, over anxious cruises
over seismic omens + vesuvian ooze 
we row, we row
ravenous sea, reassure me 
reserve me an amnesia, caesura, 
a serene unconscious ease

o canoe, maroon canoe
we row in seven rains + six monsoons
we row in summer snows
seven seasons wax + wane
we row near sorceress circe's manor 
(six + seven swine nurse acorns, en masse aware)			
we row near sirens + swoon severe
(voices immerse us, caress our ears in razor arias), 
we row near mermen, oceanic emissaries on a wave
our oars announce us in murmur, in susurrous music
sonorous sea, connoisseur in snare: un-accuse, excuse me
aeonic erosion, receive me, examine + rewire 
cure me + rename

a carmine sun commences an aurora, an amorous soiree
one moon arc answers in romance
orion rises + canis minor carves noir
a near aroma—some essence, some evanescence—
arouses in me remorse + reminiscence: 
some once omission, some non-reunion, some
mirror version, some overcome 
evasion, a misnomer, a woe, a sorrow—  o canoe, 
maroon canoe, o sea swerve, o
ceremonious casanova, 
o crimson sea serene, 
unweave our sinuous maze, our nexus
renew me, new—no 
secrecies, evasion—
a sum immersion in a now

o raw maria on moon, o unison sun, 
o universe worn in unconcern,
issue a summons, convene + reconvene
+ answer me
is a souvenir a sorrow sewn
are cocoons meaner secrecies
is erasure a crime
is reverence so rare
is an error ever overcome

soon, maroon canoe; soon, reservoir severe: 
a missive scriven in cruor, in rime
