Whale
when i called her a whale
she took it as insult
but how could i have expected her to
understand the misunderstanding
associated with that aquatic mammal
when i called her a whale
i meant it as compliment
because her beauty was larger than life
her voice reverbing through
watersheds and collapsing in harmony
on the sea bed
when i called her a whale
i meant it with absolute endearment
for boundless by the limitations
of man, she had a whole ocean to
explore inside her mind, everytime
she picked up the pen.
when i called her a whale
she took it as an insult
but how could i have expected her
to understand that i misunderstood
the question when she asked me,
my back to her, what she most resembled
-while wearing her cocktail dress.
