as I sat on a beach with my heart in the palm [as i sat] feels weak and i'd ask "is it needed?" you could end the line at "heart", and move "in the palm' down and maybe split that after "lover"
of a lover, the coconut tree above my head
dancing shadows in the breeze
that rolled the waves just enough
to crash.
I was satisfied, for a while,
but I hungered for red meat,
the kind of meal that leaves you sprawled a suggestion to enhance the en-jamb would be to move sprawled down
on the couch with your belt undone
and the tv flashing nonsense
that infiltrates your dreams
as you snore, fart, and drool. love the end line but you knew i would![]()
