red soaked watermelon sun -we three divine sit content

and un-holy

on sand on towel on chair


happiness happens -


we walk on water


we hold hands


i traipse off, absorb the flamey blue

you two are specks echoed in iris

distinct from this distance

all of our hearts' peace paced -

silver water shimmers through salty sun

board dangles midair (did i tie it to your wrist)

a cold sea runs down your faces

in mouthwatering streams lashes stick

in trickles of salt, red lips blue lick -

and your feet shod in sand



when we get home you will vacuum the car
