Palms

       Pale and freckly,
Callous, yet smooth and gentle.
  Thin & knobby.



                         Knuckles hairy.
        Enlarged from cracking 10 too
                many times.
              Asymmetrical.


        Linked with mine.
                            For hours on end.
                The other holding a cigarette.
                His life-long friend.


        Ocean clear from a faucet.
                Sand is black night.
        How late do you want to stay on the beach?


    Can we stay here forever?
