He died in the Ark

by mark littler

He died in the Ark
Drowned in sailor suit
A dropping deck for pitch in flame
Not made of balance iron nor dream round

He was the right man for marriage
Animals run one to the other
Unfit deformed

None of the women have names
Wives of sons
Sons of wives
The dress is torn

The flood honours extinction
Unclean, wrong
Deep as the curse
The water lies
His death is missing...
