You wrote these words
between the lines of your favorite novel.
Secrets revealed in code;
encrypted message beyond translation.
S.O.S.-The cruise ship is sinking.
Water and passengers churn in a soup.
Follow me to your way out.
Isn't it a good thing for you that you packed
a note in a bottle just in case?

New lives, new loves:
Elaborate screenplay for a cast of thousands
with key elements of your life,
and I can't discern fact from fiction.
Fill the tub-the mad house is burning.

Sirens and steel screaming down city streets.
Sweating hands grip the steering wheel.
And as I race against time to reach you,
all the lights turn green at once.
Just in time.
