a poem



inevitability


the inevitability of
sunlight fractured
a million shards
laying on the surface of the sea

heated skin
softened by
eradic
breezes tossling
what remains of animal
on me

the ritual cigarette
seated facing the sound of the waves
a long horizontal line

hunger

cool water in a plastic bottle

evening
the inevitability of wanting
the inevitability of
finding
of joining
in sacred primitive perfect union
entering
being
entered

contaminated

I am
all that I have lost
