The sea is a wild feast -
my heart in breast beating.
The sea, a hungry beast,
tug of war competing.
My feet dissolve in its wake.
I wade out to meet the waves.
Ebb and flow of friendship.
Salty air above my waist.
The wind sloshes my lips.
My cheeks, a blush sunbake.
I dive into the sublime sea.
Turquoise eyes of treachery
allow my vivacity and glee;
kindness swashed with brevity.
Breathless - make no mistake,
I listen to mermaids’ environs,
avoid pitfalls’ overconfidence,
cover ears, stave off sirens,
not greedy for DL opulence.*
Finless and feckless mistake,
if I find myself too far from shore,
arms and foam in dosido,
afraid and pleasured by the roar -
in fearful pretense, I’m paddling slow.
For the dorsal fin of ship, I ache.
Calypso music distracts on deck.
I leave my lover far below unchecked.
Climbing like a pirate to wreck
the captain’s safety, the sea at my neck.
Drowned in seaweed silk; bound and awake.

*DL - Davy’s Locker
Lost dolls, forgotten in the attic,
Neglected and left to gather dust,
Their once-loved beauty is losing its magic.
Their appeal is fading as fashions adjust.
But one day, they were rediscovered.
Their box opened with a gasp of surprise.
Among the dolls, one had been recovered.
Her timeless charm, with no compromise.
She was not like the others, you see.
Her beauty was not based on trends.
Her allure was not ephemeral or fleeting.
And her appeal would never depend.
Her porcelain skin was still flawless.
Her hair still shone like a golden sun.
Her eyes still sparkled with enchantment.
She was a treasure, second to none.
And so she was dusted and polished.
And displayed in a place of honor,
The timeless doll was cherished.
Her value is forever a wonder.
In a world that's ever-changing,
life, with such love wide-ranging.
Nobody knows
Bout me and you
Nobody knows
Bout what we do
They all love to talk
When they see us flirt
But nobody saw
Your hand slide up my skirt
Its pure ecstasy
When we’re all alone
When you make me sweat
And when you make me moan
If only they knew
Bout me and you
Bout what we feel
And all we do
We just have to keep it on the DL
Act like there’s nothing to tell
I’ll meet you over your place
And put it down on your face
All up on the counter
Or maybe in your shower
You’re more than just my lover
Like you, there is no other
I love sneaking
Over to you
With my thigh-highs on
And my stripper shoes
You like to watch
While I dress and tease
Showing you all you want
Than getting on my knees
Your hands pulling my hair
As you growl and moan
It’s more than your mind
That I’ve just blown
Digital age, digital technology, digital people
Digital adds to life
Digital subtracts from life
But why?
Because:
People make things
People change things
People use things
People abuse things
So:
Digital education for everyone
Then:
Digital technology for everyone
Young and old, rich and poor, here and there
Reboot society
Reboot life
Reboot digital!
