PRISTINE TOUCHABILITY

1. Spattered bone into the blue.
2. A bone unbent, spread.
3. Seats spread like oceans.
4. The ocean through smudged panes.
(Is embodied beauty, the physical expression itself, manifested in the consummation of a skewered passenger's glance, a gift unveiled?)
5. The receiver is mud-smudged.
6. Enfolded in mud splats.
7. (Does your dress sigh, bear a too profound guilt?)
8. Perhaps, loneliness is an enfolded caress.
(You are the manifestation of a striking anonymity, and others remain stricken, restrained, obliterated by such pristine visibility, until the ocean blurs, blanks: tunneled, emptied, solitary and impossibly gone.)
9. Crossed, ankle bones touch the lonely.
10. Shivering touch in the heat.
11. A moving sea shivers.
12. The blue rush of the sea.
13. View through static, rushing grey.
14. Static seats.
15. Bent, locked, shut, severed ocean.
16. Spattered bone into the blue.
