Underwater
written by: LB Sedlacek
@lbsedlacek
footprints
dirt
chewing gum
tiled lines
a glow stick
goggles
a dive stick
flippers
swim paddles
chemicals swirling
white cloud dust
swimmers of all
ages some moving
quicker than others
the water moving
with them in
time
sunlight and shadows
crash
in the cool blue pool
