I was told
I should come
With a
Warning label
“Don’t look
Into my eyes
For too long!
You’ll be
Sucked in
Forever!”
Too bad
Fair warning
Didn’t do anything
To help
Poor Jerry
Or Mark
Or James
Their sunken ships,
A few
Among many,
Skeletons of
Failed attempts
To make landfall,
Still lie just
Below the surface
A warning
Unheeded
While my light
Draws more neigh
Warning label
Indeed
Your voice is resolute. Defined. You.
