Sober Poetry?

[PlatinumVibe08]

I used to write creatively when I was under the influence. Not so much in the last few years since I no longer "self medicate." Recently, though, I was particularly fatigued about 2am and started jotting down some thoughts in lieu of studying. The following was the result:Dream ReefThe eagle soars over the floating oarsnear the shallow shipwreck reef.A new recruit in a diving suitleaves the familiar behind to steal a glimpseof a mysterious world beneath the waves.The dolphin streaks toward the sky,and with a tenacious twist of the tail,briefly breaks the bonds of her underwater universe.Freedom demonstrated by a barrel-roll of sun drenched flight,only to be coerced home by the relentless tether of gravity.The dolphin delights in the contrasting sightof sky blue against the white sand beach and forest of green,accented by the glowing warmth of the setting sun.A visual vacation to a wondrous new world,if only for a moment.Cotton candy carpets of clouds settle in the valley,the majestic mist of snow-capped mountains.The dolphin daydreams of such breath-taking beautyduring a fantastic flow of aquatic acrobatics above the reef.A magical place the diver will explore, and the eagle will never know.
