Halong Bay

Mountain formations imitating
statues of waterfalls
carved by limestone
from the mouth of
the green blue rotating
spherical void of eternity.
Eating dinner at a table
of strangers.

Shimmering reflections of yellow migration of light;
illuminating ripples of black glass
murky by ignorance - floating
in the waves of industry.

Travelling spectrums of beautiful tonality.
photographed sequentially,
by cosmopolitan cameras
clicking in the absence of an engine.

Cruising eastern-western waters.
Talking in the tongues of predetermined dialogue
in a selection of middle-class languages
in voices; too fickle to hear.

Make love to the ocean, tonight.
