The Water Bufallo


Hello, I say
I saw it so
Dancing water Buffalo
In the waves they pranced a bit
I try to call- and then they hid
 ~                ~
Come back, I call
I saw you so
In the sea I saw you go
You leaping misty gorgeous beast
But nothing, now their dancing ceased
~                 ~
I peer in close
I saw it so,
The dancing water buffalo
The sea has since been sour now
I can not see it run around
~                 ~
I turn to leave… I saw it not
Waves of ocean sprays forgot
And as I walk back towards the peer.
The snorting buffalo I hear.

    To see the dentist on the moon
    And find the next Uber at noon.
    To live in a space among the stars
    I'd have to float to school in cars.

    Sleeeeep. 

    It whispered in her ear.
    Her petals shivered.
    Its breath ran slowly
    down
    her stem and
    tickled a leaf.
