if you're looking for me
you'll find me in the jellyfish sea
i'll be waiting for your sea-salt lips
to claim me and your purple-pruned fingers to
wrap themselves around me and take me far,
far away
we'll do a running start and take a leap of
faith off the edge of the earth and
reach up to kiss the stars -
then
plummet
spreadeagled, handheld in the sky
and sprout wings to tickle our faces as they
beat by our sides, and
we are euphoric,
goosebumps in the grass.
(if anyone's looking for me,
tell them i'll be making love in the jellyfish sea)

in the muddled gray of the hospital bedroom.
He's staring at the clearly cloudy painting of a beach, my father,
and I ask him if he's alright.
He tells me how much he hurts
but how much he loves the clearly cloudy painting of a beach
with a moving sailboat.
I check the painting to see when
"See it'll go out and come back in again,"

wild sea-scented boy,
when it's time to
use the razor
i will cry and i might
leave dark-moon bruises
on your biceps
but i won't
blame you,
i won't. instead,
i will remember
primitive indigo dawns
with naked lamplight
light on half your face,
fire in your eyes,
me trapped between
your hands firm on the sides of my head,
i will remember cathartic silences,
your gaze leaking into my tear ducts,
my waist
my ribcage
my sadness
that you taste away,
the pulse of your vitals
against mine, lips raw with
sincerity,
and i will remember
our skins our touch
