Silver Boat, Golden Sea Poem by Hans Ostrom

Silver Boat, Golden Sea



hey stray dog: nobody's
going to let you in.

though human, you
own a sad canine karma.

hope will only mock you
later. turn back to streets,

lots, woods, or a one-room
apartment. enjoy pungence

and meals for one. watch
the moon get stuck

in leafless branches. dream
you're captain of a silver

boat upon a golden sea,
a faithful friend at your side.
