four ladies in a pool of water
©1998 by annacandy

it seems my heart is filled with dancing mermaids
with silken nipples of venus
sending murmurs of quakes
through this hull of faeries
slipping to and fro
with the splashes of their cherry lips

are they meant to signal the coming
of waves upon bodies of oceans
being too young to tickle between these legs
...i am hopelessly encased...
