---------------------
&
today
i’m just a mermaid who’s
resting safe and sound in
your jeans -
her name still on the inner
left leg.
i’m just a
fishgirl watching a
man (far off) in his
finest
business
clothes
trying to salvage his sandcastle from
the oncoming tide.
&with
this man, my thoughts
race to Neptune &
back again.
all the while
your eyes prying into my
bare back, extracting my
whimsical lust
with
your eyes. i smile without
any sound
for i see you (far off),
balding and frantic, in your
finest
business
clothes
trying to salvage your sandcastle from
the oncoming tide. you
notice my
smile,
the guilt falling on me
in this
tainted sunshine. your thoughts
break my silence(d mourning)
&
with a whispered
"how nice"
I forget how crushingly
deep we are
in this sea.
waking my from my
fish worries with
a caprice &
we make
love
in these
darkening waters
her name still
engraved on your jeans
& her eyes watching
as the tide
swallows her
island
paradise
on this day.

Really loved the use of words
Its kind of sensual , sexual but not in a cold crude sense
Thought it was from the point of view of a tatooo
Its an impreessive piece of work |
