Sunset Swim at Bens d'Avall
We only went
to the bay
at Bens d'Avall
to
freshen
sticky skin
cleanse
dusty heads
with bristling
coolness
-
what we got
was a swim
on a brassy path
to orange flares
in white clouds,
fan-blades of purple,
shangri-las of powdery blue
this extravaganza
from the hand of nature
can only be counterfeited
by the hand of man
in the words on a page,
the lights and smoke
of a Vegas stage
what we saw gave more
than just by looking
we could ever see
