he sat on the far side
lower legs dangling
in the churning
burning chlorine
we didn’t have many choices

to be honest
we didn’t care
to be clear
we had no intention
other than simply being there
but he was fishing

at the hot tub
the probably never seen anyone even slightly near celebrity hot tub
and it wasn’t long before
his self-conversation bore
all the sad sad signs
of bait

maga bait
on his sleeve
his 9/10 nightmare
gave no hope
no reprieve
as we just swam in obfuscation
speaking only of taking leave
so he did

no catch today
yay!
