Tinian

Seventy-degree summer breeze

Coconut crabs. Hermit crabs

shed their suits,

as they saunter in the sunshine.

Magnolias and white daffodils

sway to the silence.

I could hear the murmuring

maidens masturbating

in their mirthful innocence.

Sea horses. Wild urchins.

Dwarf Octopuses. Mahi- mahi

Rainbow and Parrot fishes.

Blue Marlin and Blue lakes

All is here for us to feast.

Let us begin

Spear fishing and swimming into the hole

the underbellies of the midnight fire

entwine in the moon’s embrace.

Always applaud the waves

Once it rushes to welcome you.

Tinian

It’s light and dark

brooding moments

keep it alive.

See the Japanese smiling

As they catch a boatful

of babies in the ocean.

Drinking saki ,  eating sashimi

“Oishi”, they say

with their lobster leavened buddies

beaten to the bone.

They sleep in here forever

and forget themselves

in the wellspring of  the unconscious.
