Sly sybarite siren’s song

Solemn softly soars

Ships slip sideways sinking slow

Shattering smooth shores

-

Sunlight searing spreading sets

Scorching scattered sins

Sea swept silver sorrow stills

Skeleton souls skinned

-

Shining scales slither slack

Shoulders somber set

She steals sea salt sewing sobs

Survivors spun sonnet

-

Stringing stories sickly sweet

Soothing saccharine sighs

She stows such secrets skillfully

Seducing starlit skies

surreal poetry
