a summer's bay
the girl
one breath
a dive into a ripple of light
following the boy down a plunge of thought
stay close - move like me - don't collide
a dance a curl
fluent in water
now blue now green
faster and faster
bait ball bubble ring
gilled and finned
a roll a flow a wave a wake
punk fish glitter ball
all curve and dip and lift and kick
now corralled
un-spiralling
shipwrecked here
the flippered princess and her frog-footed boy
