ANEMONES

You walk along the rocks by the sea, 

gently stroking the green anemones. 

You let  them  suck  on your  fingers. 

They thank you in small, wet voices. 

When   the   moon    comes    up    & 

everything  else  is  dark,  the  sea  & 

anemones  glisten.  You  tell  me  you

want soft, green children.
