PRINCESS OF THE SHORE

 

Felt like we were doing well

Then Googled it

And there we were

One of the ten happiest families

As if they knew the inner workings

And had come up with some quants

To verify the position

That if you look forward

To the next day with great anticipation

The next victory

Business, sport, sex

The better your life

The better the group

Yours, ours, theirs, everyone’s

So that no one captures elusive creatures

Quite as adeptly as the truth

            Their truth is no different

            Replay the lines

            The one that brought your happiness

            The repartee of our times

            Telling the other about others

            Remembering and projecting

            Rather than swimming chest 

high in the Brine

            Alive with all the emotional detachment

            Of an ancient warrior

            And the presence of a nubile

            A princess of the shore

            Who told of commonality

            And how the species made amour

After that and some Dom Perignon

We succumbed to a more subtle view

One of accommodation and mutual respect
