ShoreSide Magic

Oh what magic tonight!
earth and sea swallowed
in the infinite folds of
the horizon's sapphire shawl.
Shore-side flooded with liquid bluemoon
and glazen waves of silver crested guitar chords.

Glittering notes of translucent foam
and chromatic fish scales, together in concert,
vibrations crash, shattering the silent vegetation
of shadow and stone planted along the breakwall,
luminary rocks remain buddah trancelike still,
meditation undisturbed, peace intact,
undulation's unwavering pull
against the disciplined will

The ebb of the lake, an eternal dace:
moonstruck music, evaporating drums
extending in every direction.
Light of the lake seduces
lunar mirror body naked falling
awash in the drunken charm of
candelabra's celestial arms.
Free from their shells,
the hermits abandon themselves,
animal slaves to the night's
yellow eyed magnetism.

Love, let us leave behind
the cool sands of shore side comfort
surrender to the tide,
Let it carry us away,
inundate ourselves in depths unknown.
The night's shadowy arms are open for us,
the full body of the moon awaits.
Let us challenge the edges of earth,
the nonexistent edges, with our love,
our one and only life preserve.
