Is It Poetry (1958 - / Bus-Boys And Poets, Washington D.C.)

how was it
that with your boy friend on the beach
and you in the water with me
moving as if one with the waves
that you were able to pull it off as you did
the movement of your hand
was not frantic and yet
when you were done and i stepped
into the sun
that thousands of minnows appeared
all around us
and they were very hungry too
nipping.
