Intimate Interlocking Islands

Waves of love;
irrepressible,
unfulfilled,
unreturned

winds of questions
unsolvable,
unremitting and
unanswered

these erosive human elements have
forged many an island out of
fiber and protein
calcium, iron, and flesh
bone and blood and skin

Islands swelling with surges of compassion, admiration, and sympathy

I may reside on this particular island
but I am not alone
mine is only one island,
part of an infinite intimate
interlocking chain

there are many natives populating individual islands
together, one day, we shall sail free!
We shall achieve
diamond clear coast
pure water
empty sky
full sun
one-body-bliss!
