Our Secret Atlantis Found

We found Atlantis
you…
         and…
                  I

Your fingers
like magic…
bathymeters recording
all contours
                    of me…
                                 all depths of me

leaving me breathless…
            leaving me baryphonic

A bascule
only attempts
to record our love…
                     only both ends
                           sink deeply into
                   the deepest depths
                   of the sea…

Everything
                 about us…
                        our love…
                    is bathyorographical

The sea keeps her secrets
                             and so do we...
                          I know where to find
                                                              you…
                          your bathysmal soul...

Atlantis is not lost
     it is found only to us…
Our secret spot
where you found my bathypelagic heart
brought back to life
                      by the rhythmic
                                             tides of the sea
                       her sweet endless berceuse

The bathythermograph does not lie…
                            the water temperatures rise
                                             we run hot together
                                                  you and I……
We will tell them
                        not to worry
                                   it is only global warming

and the Sea
                        she will keep our secret
                                                         safe in Atlantis

Poseidon will walk me down the aisle
                                      Proteus will wed us
                                            and Arion will carry us away
                    to the long forgotten geographical
                                            center of the sea…

We will honeymoon and make love
                                         in beautiful gardens
                                                     of glowing benthos
  Where no one will know
                            No one will see…
The Sea…
                        She knows our secret
                                             its safe in her keeping
We found Atlantis
a sunken world
known only to us

Our secret Atlantis
where our love is benthic
Where we happily drown in each other
