i want to see you in the ocean


see the pale             in every fault
shine   red    lips                         sea smiles                         and salt
            in the kept dark circles                                    around blueblood eyes
emergency room                              in her vodka disguise

                                          call me       water
                                                            call me            soon
                                    i'll see you  
                                                                        sunday?
by the trees?                                    at noon?

                   we can make     memory
                         walking      by  ends
            of  land and                           past
      when                           time             begins

i show you how
i think it's done
                                                                 watch   me
                                                                                     fall

earth does love her sun

                        what is your secret?
             i am  here                  for the show
   a more honest                          existence
if planted                                                will grow
