salty water it's body lifting up a board to walk

with their glow and a theatre of sea air mixed
with thalassic crabs and briny seafaring lobsters

turbulence of screaming pink lungs pirouetting
on a blur of neon lights on fair rides.
It was flecked with tourists and romantic
couples enjoying a few days off and a night out.
I decided to take her further so we walked under.
