Horse Latitudes

When the still sea conspires an armor
and her sullen and aborted currents breed tiny monsters
true sailing is dead

Akward instant
and the first animal is jettisoned
legs furiously pumping their stiff green gallop
and heads bob up

poise
delicate
pause
consent
in mute nostril agony
carefully refined and sealed over

     —Jim Morrison
