his name was jesus

the tube fell under my weight, as if to play a game with me. a cruel one, but nonetheless, my mind went blank. i fished and flailed, i kicked and curled. seven seconds under water felt like an eternity; if i did resurface, would i still see my family?

an arm.
the warm touch of help!
thanks dad, i thought.
we resurface.
it was my best friend.
his name was jesus.
