Wild

soft-skinned power cell 
a garden, with a river flowing beneath 
water, warmed with whirlpool wisps
Palm pads press pleasure past pain.
El Oso paused, then leaned over a cliff.
He could smell her near.
A water fall boasted, in high frequency,
as it proudly rinsed off her dreds.
Here’s what El Oso saw.
a soft-skinned power cell 
a river of red maple 
not too damned sweet 
wild

As all nature and people should exhibit--that touch of wild (not crazy) makes all the more interesting and magnetic. Great read!
