Underwater Songs
(Urban Fable - 4)
Before I married the small boy in a big room, I lived in my own room. I was known as the big girl in the small room, so it was inevitable that we'd get together.
Long ago, when there was air & earth & sun & touch I sometimes bathed in water, drank it, filled water balloons with it & leaning out my window, dropped the slo-stretching globules watching them stretch thru time & compress space. That was when the little boy from the next floor rode his green bicycle.
He’d look at me and laugh – water over his epaulettes & even tho’ he wasn’t allowed to play with other people, I knew he was my best friend.
Once I hit him right on his little helmet & the spike burst the balloon, spraying it over his shoulders. He rode round and around, with scraps of balloon fluttering from his helmet. He screamed aloud that he would marry me & years later outside Barstow, on our way to Lone Pine, we did marry. But that’s another story for another day; another life.
What I must tell, what I will spill over these pages is
