Whale Beach Morning (After)

Sun, Awakening, Remembering, sex, sounds, Miles in the Sky, Jaegermeister, O, bad, when, warm, why? ‘Tis apres ski! o me, o my, not for these hot antipodae. No more, forever. Now, just, the Surf And I. Thundering, Thud-thudding, Slow, On the beach. Serendip morning, perfect, Palm-fronded, dawning, blue and silver, beige sand, Sizzling, the sound, aroma! Bacon and banana, coffee, toast, Scrambled egg, red-hot chili, O ginger, garlic, Tomatoes! Heal me! Sometime, later, sorbet, maybe, What? Champagne? Oh no, please, save me. Then, leaning, her Swimsuit, slipping, Succulent, breast, almost, tipping, rudely, slow, No. She flips it, back in, coolly…oh? Beach. Hangover, Burping, yawning, randy. Sun, dazzling, the shades, cool, handy, Oh yes, smile…the…(sleep?) Razzling has made me lazy, My poisoned brain, short-circuiting, crazy, I Sip, hair of dog, ill-considered, Breakfast, Bloody, Mary. Surf, thuds, on. And my head, Points, to the sea, Swimming, turning, catching it, Wanting cleaning, cleansing, clearing, body Surfing? No, slowing, sucked back, rolling, Sinuses swizzled, I, Tumbled and twirled, am, Dumped. By the first, little, shore-break, of the morning. Then, slowly, recreated, Finned, crawling and gasping like The first air-breather, but Back, on that vibrating beach, I smile.
