Lights underneath 

from lights above 

trial by water after all 

two by the ocean 

waves crashing in 

a witness of the deep 

the swimmer can swim 

a thousand lengths 

clockwise and reverse 

I cannot swim in you 

absorbed in itself 

all the way down 

to the ever hushed cry

the threat of its stillness 

mirror the sky 

one, two, me and you 

the swimmer can swim 

a thousand lengths 

clockwise and reverse 

I cannot swim in you.
