SEA DRIFTERS

There is
loam
in the sea
foam in
the fantasy

It isn't
blue sea drifters
that outnumber
me

There is life
in the sea
that don't need
light at all

I call it
the evening
It has
no ending.

DREAM SONG

Daffodil moon presents

a fat girl
on stilt calves
in my dreams

lord of persia
and the tombs
in my dreams

luger pistol
made the thing
irreversable.

OUR VICIOUS LOVE

There were many times
when she was so sensual
my cock would spit
the instant she
touched it

There were many times
she was so sensual
I'd dream she
was an animal

fawn  .  tiger
any thing kept in cages
any young thing.

THE OTHER WOMAN

You love with style
you make it all so easy
with your smile

I hear your hunger . tender
your face against my shoulder
drifting
 
The stillness of the passion
like the god upon the water
in the storm

I walk upon your breathing

You are so real
when I am in you

I hold the sea
so I can long be with you

You are a cat upon the pillow
sleek and moving

I am the mist that gathers
I am the rain above you.
