CÔTE D’AZURE

by Robert Beveridge

The sound of salt
on your skin keeps 
my ear pressed against you.
Slow, crackled tang
as the sea air worships 
you with brine. The sun 
against your flesh darkens, 
evens freckles, spreads 
them over you
maple jelly from my fingers
alone, or with me
you sunbathe nude
when you wear the white swimsuit in public there's not much difference
that is to say
I love your curves wrapped 
in white transparency
I love that people stare at you
and whisper
I love that all my friends desire you
I love that you will let me
taste the sea's salt
on your thighs
