We rode on the deserted roads, through the expanse of humble abodes We rode by the huts and the sheds, by disconcerting poverty and dreads Dogs barked Televisions barked We rode onto darkness, to silence The huts thinned out Now it was only the growling motor and the hooting owls and the chirping crickets The beer had warmed But it was a cold night She sipped, I swigged The headlamp needed some fixing The beams kissed treetops as I rode into blind bumps and corners On the left was a pretty sight and it was a lonely night So I turned left and rode as far into the beach as I could but here it was mostly sand and the riding got out a little out of hand the tires didn’t bite but it was alright I could see the waves We were only a few meters away This was a perfect getaway Behind the bushes and the vines Abetted by the palms and pines I killed the motor and put it on the stand but it sunk in the sand I tried to lift but it was heavy She dragged me to the waves I dragged her to the bushes
Her eyes twinkled and the edges crinkled as she smiled and it soon got wild I unbuttoned her shirt and we kissed till it hurt I struggled with the clasps between the kisses and gasps She was very kind She didn’t mind helping a man blinded by the darkness of the night and of his depraved soul She helped me with the clasp and stripped bare without concern or care She yanked my pants and we did a tribal dance drunk out of our wits in the moonless ritz there was rhythm in the air and we both sensed it The gentle slush of the wave nudged us to save and treasure the last drops of love that we could have now As we made slow love in the breeze the world dribbled to ease and we mated in the dark night with the moon still out of sight
