"What's in there,
you think?" she said,
peering into the cave.
We'd climbed down from the bluff
to Shark Fin Cove,
removed our shoes and set about exploring.
We reversed a waterfall's direction, climbing up
and back into its mouth,
light dimming and water chilling, the farther in we went.
"Monsters, animals, humans, or dead bodies?"
I laughed and shifted closer,
iPhone flashlight doing nothing for the velvety blackness,
taking comfort in closeness
"How about we keep exploring and not find out?"
