Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus


I'm moving gentle forward, over the wild and beautiful unexplored world below me.
I'm floating in silence, and breaking it up with the sound of my breath.
Above me, there's nothing but shimmery light,
the place where i have come from,
and will go back to when I am done here.

I am diving. I'm a SCUBA diver.
I'm going deeper past the wrinkled rocks and dark seaweed,
toward a deep blueness,
where a school of silver fish wait.
As I swim through the water,
bubbles burst from me,
wobbling like little jelly fish as they rise.
I check my air. I dont have as much time as I need to see everything.
But that is what makes it so special.
