Tsunami Sex Seen
quiet waves out at sea
deeply breathing in
sweeping out to shore
a frigate bird swells
a red neck sack hoping
to attract
a young buck
ruts and rattles
antlers with a tree
the earth shakes
a slight quake making
mounds ripple as if flesh
a slug barely seen
moving leaving
a slime trail behind
away from the pack
a wolf pees on a rock
marking his spot
a natural spring trickles
into a stream into
a brook that babbles
deep underneath steam
creates pressure for
a geyser anytime to blow
the seagulls swarm knowing
krill will surface as
my humpedback whale swallows
as the swallows and swifts
dart and dash to catch
an insect kiss
the snapping turtle's tongue
enlarges enticing to eat
the it beyond lips
now the ground grinds
in time and rhythm
giving in to the given
harvest of the ripening
the time of
mowing and moaning
needing be alone but us two
pants at our knees panting
barefoot stomping grapes
our toes turned purple circle
circulating gemini sixty nine
never having our fill we'll
turn our wheel
for ad infinitum
never spilling a drop
yet undulating waves
each ever passing to
create the one that washes
all
this
away
