Ah xxxxx br there is a warm place br in my body br it is water br an ocean entering tributaries br that have carried silver fish br and you love, love, love br love, the silver of these fish br that carry the sun on their backs br they have travelled long distances br beneath my skin br bodies flapping like open limbs br satisfied br br Ah xxxxx br I cannot flow br other than as water br this is my love, water br water, br spreading over you br loosening feelings br moistening stones br the glistening translucent br froth of sirens screaming br leaves golden floating in your eyes br everything washed away br except the great bruises of passion br that turn yellow, xxxxx br on the inside, weeping, br coalescing, warm final tears that shine br like the lights of a sad, sunken ferry br submerged under skin br in layers of silent turgid sacs br br Ah xxxxx br we are water br we are falling water br we are the voice of water br and we are wet with its lovebr br L.B.
