Mermaid Dissonance

I met a mermaid in a man-made river
The outline of her svelte frame
Glistened like a rayograph in the afternoon sun
Skin sticky and sweet
Glowing behind a sweaty mirage
My eyes knew no difference
Between its tears and the fresh waters
That swam into them
She pulled me under for a kiss
"Just one," she said
"Okay."
"Just one," she said.
"Okay."
"Just one more."
"Okay."
And with each kiss
I lost a little bit more of myself
"Let go."
"Let go."
"Let me in," she said.

Cover my mouth with your hand
Put your palm around my neck
Tell me stories of the vampire on Argonne Drive
The mermaid who walked on broken glass
Her shredded tail marked her alien
Living alone in the undressed knoll
Where the tower watched o'er the deer
Inside of a paid drug hotel
The waifish blondes read text messages of ancient pagan poetry
