Lush Ocean


"Lush Ocean" 

I wade out into you
embrace the cool of you
to die a little death
immersed in the ocean
that is you, drowning 
in the indigo velvet 
of your copulating 
embrace 

red becomes you
as your waves crest 
into and over me

I draw you into me
far from our other worlds
where dissonant siren voices drown

(LadyLabyrinth / 2022)
