in my hand and
made me write this
silly contract this sad
confession they made
me swear I would paint
these three women
walking on the beach
with these three boys
body-surfing in the
bottle-green waves
sleek as seals behind them
how they stop to pose
faded-red hat yellow hat
multi-colored hat
blue blouse beige blouse
orange blouse and the boys
climbing the foam behind them
they made me promise it
with the wind touching us all
today I would be happy
even against my will
under duress of beauty
under its lashing still
