Warm salt
in my eyes --
a swimming jellyfish
I made this one after reading Jack Kerouac's Scattered Poems / San Francisbo Blues, poem 4:
And
The taste of worms
Is soft & salty
Like the sea
Or tears.
(Jack Kerouac 1961)

Variations
Idea # 1:
By an empty shore
no one --
stones
# 2:
The sea is kissing
rounded stones
on an empty shore
# 3:
an open sea --
shingles
are listening
After I wrote those I thought to add someone into the shore:
# 4:
a woman
sitting by the shore,
just sea kissing the shingles
But L3 is too long , so # 5:
A widow on a shore --
the sea cuddling
the shingles

1st of May
Spring arrived --
all these dusty dusks
hugging me!
Inspired by Jack Kerouac, Book of Sketches (Penguin 2006) page 402:
Spring is coming --
Yep, all that equipment
For sighs
