I learned to swim
When I was young
I learned
Freestyle
Breastroke
And butterfly
Now here I am
Years later
And all I know
Is how to sink
How to drown
How to go deeper
And deeper
And not come
Up for air
I no longer know
How to float on my back
How to race across
The span of the pool
All I know
Is how to sink
How to drown

I love how the words stretch out down the page as if they themselves are sinking.
Thank you!
