Julie Deuce, '15 (A Summer Swim Song)

________________________________________________________________________________________________

____________________________________________________________________________

________________________________________________________

singing in the shower. shaved and shampooed
i begin your day feeling quite renewed

i water danced with Naiad
tomorrow you are a triad

yesterday you were an ace
today you name this place

pass the joy and hold  the sorrow
15's midpoint is  tomorrow:

(you then officially be "the first friday of july"
from earth's core to the top of the sky)

you become prelude to american perks
as we will fill that sky with fireworks

while evil forces pray for our ruins
to the tune of  red balloons

the fear follies have no chance
99 luftballoons  will make us dance

in the seventh month of true romance
