here i am

Here I am,
Hungry, strong and restless,
Unemployed and feckless.
My ship’s come in in a bottle;
My hand uneasy on the throttle;
I’m reckless under sail
I cross a barrier reef of jacket flap bio hooks
To lagoons of dusty nooks
Where I read my mail.

Here I am,
Vision of charity,
Verifiable fan of verity.
Certifiable fanatic;
Chronic chronicler of the frenetic.
I advanced my case to the panacea,
An alarming throwback;
Odd fish
On an odd tack;
Too small to keep,
Too big to throw back.
