Youth undone...

circling dervishes awash in the sun
coruscating like diamonds in the shore
i capitulate the stench and the stank
of your succor
your insouciance slakes my thirst
taking the pearls in thy tongue
twisted waters turn to wine
waxing the moons along the rhine
In between breaths
You bounce out of your eyes
I see you shine in the sun
Boy from the pearl farm
you till, you steal
you melt away in your meal
the pearl you give
is a full lives reprieve
no muro ami
no kaingin
no ambush
no dynamite fishing
keep you at bay
keep you out of the hay
no more rice paddies, eh
no more pearls to dive for , eh
what now
what for
what else
where to my boy
