Eyes down

Legs crossed

Back straight

Stomach tucked

Hands folded neatly

neatly

neatly

.

Too late to remember the

shuddering, liquid pain

wracking your body in

great heaving waves,

and you grateful,

feeling so calm

when it dries.

.

Too late to drown.

.

Force it in

Shove it in

Keep it in neatly

neatly

neatly

.

and chin up.
