Z

is for
a boat in violet
a crew in violet

opposition
to gas
giants

I know it’s easy
to say Neptune
calling

these guys would
try anything on
don’t believe

a word
they tell you
and prepare

for the mists
of, uh
Neptune

to descend
as your boat
arrows to shore

or you’re suckered
into the slick
of a life

time
more
likely
