The water gushing
from those black rocks looks hot.
The sky tastes green
with a lilac halo.
Her braid is loud against my fingertips.
She can smell my voice five kilometers away.
Her reply is only slightly salty
with a hint of ginger
till I awaken in the middle
of another fractured night.
Sheesh. That poem makes such an impression it’s like taking the candy out of someone’s mouth and eating it. And not feeling bad about it.
