The Lanai


On that lanai in lovely Kapula, 
a white moon stares down all alone 
but a pacific roar tells us 
       life is near.
As does the steady groan of frogs 
buried in a slime
of hideous creatures and 
      frightening possibilities.
And above my head, every second
a new electrocution scents the air 
with sizzling flesh, dangling the inevitable 
      before me.
