Bathtub

She opened her legs in the bathtub and I ducked my head under
Becoming a small figure with mask and snorkel
Swimming through seas and into her caves,
Becoming smaller the further I went
Until I was only a small tadpole-like creature
With a long tail, swimming forward,
Searching blindly, searching forward,
And this was all the meaning there was in all the Universe.
