Incestuous Youth

Listen to poem:
Late afternoon surfers clasp the wind-swollen waves to chests rounded and tanned, jut-nippled and muscular -- the scent of their youth fresh as the salt air. They ride the belly-quivers of the fecund green sea, endless, undulating, incestuous -- the common watery womb which bore us all.

Good descriptive wording here. I took your suggestions and made the changes to my poem. They were the best suggestions I have ever received from anyone here.
