Thump thump, thump thump, thump thump; thump thump: thump thump.
My heart is a cacophony of drums.
Ebb and flow. Swish and clash. Waves go to bump
Against shiny bodies of beach bums.
Drip drip, drip drip, drip drip, drip drip, drip drip…
My ice cream’s melting as I kiss your lips.
Lust and longing, for a little sip,
My head on the sand I can hear each hiss,
Of air escaping from mollusks below.
You grab my hair and my waist in such haste.
There’s an audience enjoying the show.
So I’ll let not one moment go to waste.
Summer love seems to happen in a flash!
My heart is now waves upon breakers, smash!

The Fish Song
The room didn’t smell like disinfectants. Its fragrance seemed light and not overbearing. A soft mixture of lavender and mint permeated the space. No beeping machines or any tubes hooked up to four-year-old Kaleeka. Her cacao skin seemed to glow from the light over her head. The family, save for one and the doctors and nurses exited the room like a trail of saints showing their last vestiges of regard.
