How Deep

Dancing in a gym in a city hall 
passing the girl in mime make-up 
who can’t be saved 
and grabbing some stranger 
The dead girl tells us to hurry 
she knows she can’t go 
lost in hallways of a huge apartment building 
lost and lost and lost 
until outside 
in my yard 
the sharks coming in on the next wave 
that turns out to only be ankle deep
