Parting: A Red Sea Love Story
After long journeys
two fish finally meet
love at first sight
They are going to kiss
Suddenly, almost-joined-lips are split by Moses’ waves
bodies tossed to separate shores
Mouths open and close, on and on, as if they are kissing
Not even death can do them part
Cup
You empty my cup
by filling
hers
