Unrequited Love
Every time I look to
the water,
I see a fossil.
They are stuck there
lazily
Amidst the sand.
And when I pick one up
to say, “look!”
She has to respond,
"you're not sanitary.”
Deep in the sand
A crab crawls without a
sense of being sanitary.
She asks me to look,
But all I see are
fossils.
I begin to swim in the
water
And I float on my back
lazily.
She examines the crab
as it lazily
Digs a hole pushing
away the sand.
A big wave of water
Slaps across the shore
giving the crab my sanitary
Sense while the fossils
Jolt around as I look.
She sits down on a
hammock to look,
But I feel too lazy
To walk past the
fossils.
And tread on the sand
To her smelly feet
that’s un-sanitary.
I hear the water
Recede as she sips a
coconut shell full of water.
I see the crab peering
out of the hole to look
While the lady becomes
more sanitary
Absorbing the sun and
making vitamin D lazily.
I make my way back
across the white sand.
I step on a fossil
By accident and I bleed
without any sanitary
Sense. She bends
her head down to look lazily—
And all I see is the
ocean of water.
