once upon a time
i went diving in the red sea
(dont believe the hype, its not fucking red)
off the disgraceful shitstain of resorts
full off filthy rich, entitled and downright boorish russians
and pushy, avaricious hotel staff
fuck your baksheesh sky high!
that make up hurghada
sadly and predictably
the coral is badly damaged by the fuckhead tour operators mooring their boats
by tying them to coral branches
i was bricking it
as i hadnt dived since i got my licence 8 years before
when i had cheated on the test!
and i had forgotten even the things that i had copied
that last addled, stressful and exhausted night by lake malawi
happily it all went well enough
and we dived by make a wish island
and my wish not to fuck up and drown in disgrace
did indeed come true
