Odysseus and the Sirens

S.A. Napping on Her Pillow
She smiles, pouts,
and suckles in her sleep.
Her blue-on-blue eyes
open, gleam, and roll
then slip back beneath
the waves, and I wonder
what mermaid have I coaxed
to come up into this dry world
of unsupportive air,
blazing days and speckled nights?
