good things come (to those who wait)

churning, burning
never learning
I'm sexy, yes
but not discerning
the ocean leaks out
drop by drop
as he banters 
with a cop
stop me, please
only if you can
and only if you will
command the storms
in me
to still
it takes skill
to harness
the energy contained
in the likes
of me
but the reward is all the sweeter,
see
