There! is the world
of clear eyed thin skinned twins
lounging poolside
as sunlight gathers in piles
and the smaller, less adventurous
wade ankle-deep
under the shade tree
No narrative splits the shade
where motion is a mistake
made in the heated haze.
There! go no wild-eyed wanderers
whose gifts are unwelcome,
gazes untouched by milky sweetness
stretching to touch the sun
Thank you very much. I hope
you liked it.
