Swampsong

from Man in the Mira by PK Flyer

lyrics

If love was a river ours was a stream
Trickling and cooing it called to me
I chased the sounds and came to a pool
There your body sighed and smiled as I slid in next to you

The spring air was cool, the water - sun-warmed sweet and clear
We splashed while winking – our laughter replaced the crik’s coos
We fell asleep as summer stirred and the water stilled
Mosses muffled flowers and the insects ruffled you

(the sunight is moist
our pool is a bog
slithering worms and
slippery frogs)

Eyes glazed I’ve the smile of a drunk
I’m swimming in place insane in the muck
Then I woke up

(six years had past
and you were gone
covered in sweat
my bed is a swamp)
