Depression sales into bay
Depression sales into bay Depression sales into bay written April 5th, 2021 Depression sales into the bay our little town is built on it is a frequent but unwelcome visitor ominous, malevolent and stifling Often it arrives in the night creeping in on panther's toe pads its sails blocking out the sun Plants and people sit in suspended animation trying to carry on Some boldly give depression the finger as they walk by While others withdraw to the sanitarium dishes are left undone and run wild in the streets Scientists are researching a vaccine the librarian searches in books soldiers plan attacks (which fail) the priest prays and does exorcisms the green witch burns toy ships in effigy all hoping to find the answer Until that day we fight we submit we carry on waiting for depression to sale out of our petty little bay. |

This started off being a depressing poem about depression. It's helpful just to write and get things out sometimes, but the poem wasn't very interesting or something it felt worth sharing. Then I thought of the ship sailing into bay. It made it much more interesting for me.
