I do not know where or when, but I saw the walk and sat at your table, full fledged and parted.  Sea parted for you and your eyes, that stopped to see me close and held me. Captive.
As willing as the tight river running down it's mountain.  So clear you asked if we could drink it.

the song of a quiet float, no thing to lay to rest, all arms, legs whole hung, over sides, over bed rails, a song of the emptied body, flank tipped right side up, to wait for his morning, to see him seeking again, so full and proud
