Pathway
   
Our bodies stretch
two continents
my fingers direction south
your legs east
if I extend my right arm
parallel to the horizon
our fingertips would align
you would have to uncurl
your palm on wet seashells
the ocean blew inside
a pathway would be created
your thoughts to me
trickling through my body
back across your toes
feet legs...
