you’re a water dog
it says welcome
to your new home
where the water is dry
and the air is not
there your watery tongue
is mostly sweet but
sometimes sharp and you are
stubborn and eccentric and
you may not be
aware of this but
you have chosen
lightness over darkness
and therefore are destined
to always feel the black
shadow gliding beneath
the light on the water.
the light on the water.

I really like this one, but the line involving lightness and darkness sounds a little hackneyed.
