The Seal.
It has been a long time since I was in a bay somewhere on the Algarve.
The road to get there was narrow and dusty, and
I got annoyed with my girlfriend at the time for dragging me.
away from the safety of my house and the communal
Swimming pool. It was a secluded beach where women.
could swim without the great hindrance of a bra, and to
Think she had dragged me here to get her **** sunburned.
She could have done that in my backyard.
I went for a swim, and the water enveloped me like blue silk.
And I floated with the lightness of a sea lion, it was then.
I saw here, just her head, a mermaid, and her head was
Bobbing gently up and down, she was the sea.
The home of all beginnings....
So they did exist, and not an illusion, a tale told by the lonely.
Sailors, and how typical that wondrous women are seen
by those who long for female company, but a voice
from the shore called me, the one who was tanning her ****,
was getting restless, wanted something to eat, fried chicken
Salad and a half bottle of chilled white wine.
