By the edge of the pond
our clothes on the ground
Nobody but airplanes could see us,
and the dirt was settling,
the truck cooling,
the grass unbending
from our bodies.

The hum
and sob of cicadas,
and heavy breathing,
as we dove under,
and resurfaced,
lips curling,
mouths
catching air like fireflies
