Phantom Spectre

Far beyond the deadly Torch Bearer Lighthouse Point
My bouyant body floats, weightless carling movement on the afterdark
night ocean
Dream-filled eyes are half-way closed in rippling tidal waves
Thunderous crashing thoughts, pooling eddies in a vortex of aquatic
midnight love

My mind a racing spinnaker, an elliptical galaxy spiraling, set
steadily adrift
Fingertips are sparklit dripping, reflecting shining trails on the
multi-faceted surface of the solitaire diamond-moon
Crescendo-banding crescent cloud-shapes seen through blue-lagoonal
greentide motions
As I intently watch the first of night-star-jewels awake from ghostly
loops of slumber

Fantail fantasies are rising in come hither winks of lemon-aide iced
surprise,
Saturn's floating rings tell universal tales so tall
Salt-encrusted mermen brandishing pointed three-pronged silver
tridents
Cool pearlescent sea nymphs spinning songs, luring lonely sailors to
their watery deaths

No Ancient Mariner do I need to blanket me in obsessive irredescent
mysteries
My goosebumped flesh is tingling, cavorting in a coverlet of damp
sensations
King Neptune dives in phantom spectre, razor sharp his savored kisses
cover me
Carnivorous angel shark with photon-parted lips, anchors me aglow to
his oceanic home
