lyrics

i wade ankle deep into every great lake
and all my pals are soaking wet
(wet from swimming in a tiny pond)

it's a lot of water that i'm standing in
i only know:
how warm it is,
the sand grit

at least my feet are sensitive

others know:
the lakes i've been in,
number,
volume,
not how deep i went

those details make me seem like a limnologist

fear of water cool on new skin
holds me to a single depth
but in the water all my pals are beautiful

i was born to swim and swim,
with nerves required to dive in
in the water my father was beautiful

pals everywhere
pals
beautiful pals
