the moon shallow dives to meet you
under a midnight sea
you never looked more lovely than this time
wearing 4 feet of tide
an oceanic light
shuffling your private deck of cards
suits of flowers and a crystalline count
your game is insatiable
the way you swap poppies for lavender
your eyes dressed in book bindings
i sit quietly tucked under water lilies
swallowing your incantations
the murmurs of your dewy heart
i'm nourished as only empty can be...
by you.
in your palest skin
flush drained to the sea
the blossoms......the winking stars...
i wish I’d been the one to build your play
dream the colors and set them to tune
the essence of light, sky sugar digits
so pure...
you never waver
only to bleed your grin
for the petal ripples
the bite of the figure
you know what's underneath
