Aquaphobia
By lupus tenebrae
Yellow phobias
and ivy precautions,
two sides of the same
doubloon, since oxidizing.
Contrasting
the beauty
of the shipwreck
that’s read like an open hull,
as written by Davy Jones.
Buried in its patina
like it
always should have been,
with bones of arrows pointing
forward,
at my fear of drowning

This is so darkly enchanting. And I must agree with natalie's comment, this speaks strongly about taking control of our fears.
