The Porpoises - Poem

Work Text:

Dancers on the waves
you balance at the interface
of the elements,
of neither air nor sea
but both.

Slanting in the sunrise
the light gleams on
your sea-stroked sides.
You flirt with the prow
like fresh young girls
who blush and brush against
their dazzled lovers.

Chained to the deck
I lean far forward
to watch you soar
on whispering wings of water.
