Sailor Talk

One day I will kiss you filthy

Like a sailor’s dirty mouth

Rum and cigarettes

Soaking in sunshine

Licking salt skin

Like waves lapping

As waves build within

Our liquid moon-tugged bodies

One day my riptide will

Pull you out to a sea

So hot you float

Senseless with sensuality

Melting the boundary of flesh and fluid

Until our rising waves

Crest in positive interference

And break us open.
