music
in haunts
of mental lakes.
fluid thought
takes
acoustic advantage
uses sound sentiment
to swim against
current silence.

merman
made muse.

as muse
made mermaid
manifesting christ
like mother mary
converging magdalene
the holy harlot
held my fish tail
and i
unable
to come loose
wiggled my word
inside
for future birth
made flesh
we bed
down in water
and burst out
dashing beyond
aquatic kingdoms
caressing sand
and shore
found ourselves
wrapped
in fish net
of legend and folklore
an amphibious amore.
