can we go swimming in Argentina already, and fill our hair with knots and ocean salt? can we walk swaying like the tide, along the damp, moon-lit breast of the beach and fill the empty bottles in our clenched fingers with lavender and red ocher, a pallet of dawn reflecting off glass? can we drink coconut water in beer bottles, and drape ourselves in hanging hammocks under a wide eyed sky? i only want to listen to the distant roar of water attacking sand, like soft, silk whispers in a salt canopied bed, crickets chirping through the night time warmth, and tropical, sleeping breath slowly unleashed.

lets go.
