What’s a Poem?

I take this scalpel, scoring into the crevices of my every experience;
Dissecting moonlight dalliances;
Prying away scar tissue, reaching into treacherous tenebrosity.

On Ocean bed, I glide blade with strokes;
interrupting deathly slumber of submerged shipwrecks.

Juxtapositions expose and begin voyage toward shore;
hazardous materials, desperately pendulous, requiring organisation.

I gracefully slice with the drug of choice;
offering deliverance to the toxicity that might otherwise dwell in the deep.
