Equatorial Valentine

As at the equator
The sun stays put
Just above the sea
 
In the center of the picture
I hold in my head
While here outside
 
It’s the same old yard
Getting ready
To be desert again
 
I try to be the fulcrum
And let the sea rest
Onto my shoulders and arms
 
Like some old-world monk
Yoked with pails of water
For some flower
