oysters
sit
as I drink red wine
from a dusted bottle
stay
as I trace our initials in the sand
with a gnarled brach of an oak tree
taste
the oysters they harvested
in this cool, winter month
(it is November,
so it is safe to eat them...)
and take me
from the white tipped waves,
down to the black oblivion
of the ocean floor
your Egyptian sheets,
a sail for a ship
that never got to see
a new sunrise
