I Don’t Love Like Still Waters

I don’t love
Like still waters

Unless those waters
Are on fire

Sailors adore
Some temperate weather
So they can stay
Conservative

Unbridled waves
Rowdy
With froth

They anticipate
Under shelter
While I scream out
Something red
Into the sky

I don’t love
Like still waters

I love only
Like a roistering fool.
