ship wrecked

as much as I like
coconuts
I couldn't survive on an island
after being ship wrecked
with just that.
or bananas
for that matter.
i'm not adept at spearing fish
or cracking poor turtles
open
for soup and sandwiches.
I don't want to write the word
help
with giant leaves and logs.
I prefer
the islands in a chair
on the white
sand.
with a drink in hand.
a blue and white striped towel,
a book.
maybe some shrimp without
shells
in a small bowl
to snack on and of course
you,
in a bikini putting lotion
on my shoulders.
