Ferry

Anonymous souls

on the endless Ocean

I am stranded

on a moving island

A floating bar out at sea

Irish lads punch drunk on Deck 9

And in the dog saloon

And me, the cabin scavenger

Savouring transience.

Could be worse

Sheltering in the lee

Of a plastic chair

Where the hasty wind smokes

my cigarettes for me

Low bar entertainment

filtering through

the IPA haze.
