As Oregon Bleeds

[Littlejohn]

As Oregon bleeds
into the Pacific:
My fingers, like the tide,
pull at her figure.
Her sands lay beneath me
as I move over her,
brushing her frame.
Two bodies abstracted,
defining the other.
The curves of the coast sway
to the current's song.

She should have stayed in Portland.

Nice! As a fellow Oregonian, I had to open this.

Though it does seem kinda cliche....pretty much a metaphor for sex or making love, instead using Oregon as opposed to something generic.

Oregon is for lovers.

just because poems are about sex/love doesnt make them cliche. i thought this was a fairly original twist.

i like.
