tossing people overboard

like
the captain of a ship
that's taking
on water,
i start to throw things overboard
to stay afloat.
some people
might call it simplifying
things.
which it is.
reducing
the weight of what holds
me down.
a few passengers
might have to go too,
the whining ones,
but not worry, they'll
find another
boat, another shore.
