i look over
at the blue squared
concrete pond
surrounded
by a chain link fence
and barbed
wire.
maybe this is the year
i finally go in.
take a dip,
go for a pleasant swim
in the neighborhood
pool
but then i see
the line of children,
dancing
with ants in their pants,
at the door,
and i cringe. i know
what children do
once they touch water.
