Part Two
A WALK UNDER THE SEA
_____

BARRIER REEFS

Great Walls dividing
vast cold deeps from shallow seas.
Hail Metropolis!


SEA-HORSE

Pregnant father sways,
rocking-chair to ocean's gait,
champions patience's race


DEEP (BLUE)

How poignant the face,
sunset eye reflect such depth,
I see how you feel.


FLASH-FLOOD

Heat-wave season's rage:
mountains weeping rivers/skies
siroccos will dry.


OCEAN

1.
Undulating thirst
un abiding liquid dunes
not a drop to drink.

2.
Her bright irises
blue Mariana Trenches
cries deep Pacific.


NAUTILUS

1.
Down the lonely depths
in her bowels of pressured pitch
brave, his tiger stripes.
2.
Her inner most womb
where amorphous life ignites
closer to all dreams.
3.
Submarine seashell
in Ocean's wild, gravitates:
carnivore protist.



FATHOM*

1.
Dungeness landscapes:
fear an abyss blindly swims,
(but) in my thoughts you glow
2.
A conflagration
in liquid skies where we bathe
minds a light to see
3.
As deeply precious
a breath that remembers you
soaring dark chasms
4.
Dread at failing Love,
I give a drop in the pond
my life for Gaia...
5.
A magic nation:
love for water will not thirst
imagination.


[ In your thoughts I (will) glow. ]
