Turkey

---

Rocked to sleep under the stars,

the sea gently clasps me,

warm air like silk on skin. 

Sun-drenched skin interlaces;

flies hum over sweat-dewed flesh 

for a drink of summer blood.

Turtles weave beneath the film 

drawn between water and air; 

we watch the jellyfish dissolve

into the ocean’s arms.
