The executives lunch,
or a directors dinner.
Chicken and champagne breakfasts,
or a midnight supper buffet.
A sip of congnac,
a taste of gin.
An award winning wine,
or a cocktail called sin.
A run in the woods,
or a walk at the park.
Meandering with the mutt,
or just strolling in the dark.
Swimming with dolphins,
or eeling for sparks.
gathering molluscs,
avoiding the carps.
Sailing the winds,
or riding the waves.
Flying with currents,
none of these pays.
Yet the skins tingles teaching,
about hows we hold our breath.
And how we regulate our health,
holding that loving feeling back.
