we wrap our fingers around the water’s throat


(fingers, in terms of: 


cigarette stubs / fishing lines / six plastic yokes / a doll’s     head / salt & pepper shakers / my grandmother’s / 2,500 sets drifting after death / a refusal to sink / bottles / bottle        caps / bottle-nosed dolphins nudging sea sponges / nudging candy wrappers / nudging toothbrushes / friendship bracelets green & black for her narrow wrist / i play with the tail / a bright bead on the end / we use to build lizards / scuttling across the kitchen floor)
