The Dream Breathing

We fight the buoyancy of dust bodies
swimming from light
into the bed
searching under rocks
letting the difficulty of breathing
go
our bubbles break the surface
and leave us so far below now.
We play like breathing
into one another's mouths
laughing at how awkward
the duties of breath can be.
Reckless we sink
not asking if we'll ever come back
from this swim.
