Ocean

Ocean

Poetry by
Kevin Bowersox

Were my love an ocean
There could be no land.
No crystal fibrulation
Where the water and the sand
Advance and dissent
The quavering solution
Where forms intertwine
And strand becomes strand.

Only mound and mount and slope full waned
'Neath profound and silent sea
Where thick heavy waves roll soundless
Shapeless
Placeless
Unreceived.

My love is not an ocean
But finite, human borne
Seeking with swells of passion
Expression upon your shore.
