Hey Mann by Lizz Wright

tepid

deep-ended in shallow (ocean) water
i

reveal sides of my/self
unseen

and  /  in these reticent patches
down here
under

the sallow shade   of my hat,
you
will see me.

white hearts and gallant boys
turn

my nose up
(with glee), oh / i am

so far away from (the sea)...

but
i still know
when to call you a cowboy,

baby:

you're mine.
