somewhere in between

we lay at
the edge of our geographies
we yearn for a breach
uncomfortable in the unknowing
sweat and lust and sand and salt

make love, make mischeif
           draw a bath and just lay there

lose shadows interplay

it is the story of the fuck that I crave
the journey, the territory,
             the communing with nature

low tide follows high tide
             as surely as night follows day
i follow you beyond the rocks
             to a secret cave

it is innocent as it is provocative
as ocean flows to sand to mountain
             to pine forest to alpine lake
             to waterfall to river system to jungle
             to city to mine to dunes to ocean
             to you to me to the edge of our geography
