Lake Tanamakoon: The Triangle

I spent a summer learning that lake,
swimming in a knot of three, dock to buoy to buoy to buoy -- a constellation of Javex bottles anchored somehow to the bottom of the lake,
impossible to see from shore.
We measured our days in arm strokes and breaths pulled in above the surface, tracing the triangle every afternoon
until the leaves started turning.
