Porcelain Soul

Turn off the city lights 
Rake the wind and 
rake her leaves 
rethink the cost 
till its toil
a boat ride in the seas
smashing rocks
to the tide 
a moons roll
the starboard side 
of a porcelain soul
everyone is asleep 
on the riverside 
the tide flaps the shore 
waiting in the grains my bare feet 
sucked down in the sand 
with each gaping moment 
a splash in my hand 
her breast form a shadow 
i watch her dance
my reflection in the mirror 
a warriors stance
