36. Those Precious Stones

I keep
These rocks
In my pocket,
A delicious way
To sink.
Your hand, lined
And opened, and I touch it
Only to push it away
From me.
And the deeper I go,
The ocean, she’s eager
To cover me.
But there again,
Your hand,
Open and waiting
For my indiscretions,
The periods on all my sentences.
Those precious stones.
