Passage to the island
with a three-knot
north-north-western wind
the ferry remains on its toes
the seas in this part
is known to be treacherous
passengers pacing about
unsure of what to do
impatiently looking out
perhaps they realised
if a place is accessible only by the
sea
then at the back of the mind
lies the possibility of stay
a subtle evasion, an uncharting
a rubbing oneself off the radars
a backward walk in the sand
to dupe the flies back inside the bell
jar
when you landed you described the sea
as you would have the mind
fearless, unbounded, and quiet
knowing the next tempest
would exile you out
willingly, world-quarantined.
