the details unremarkable
but important everything visual
mostly but alkali when you kiss
it isn’t her mouth you taste but your
listing now gently breath bowing out
there on the sea lost in labor
what sense what’s lost and begs no leaving
but for it time gales and there on the sea
floor full of tidal sludge — green, gray
hammering out — a stony pitch:
details unremarkable
nothing visual, nothing reckoned
but halved and accounted.
