As the waters recede at the early morning low ebb
They leave behind the flotsam and jetsam pell-mell on the shores
Castaways from a probable drinking spell lie on a yellow cage
Hanging overĀ this trap for the wandering crabs and lost fish
A refuge from the headaches of last night missing memories
If you can’t walk on water, try the stronger spirits…
