wing flap sheet snap attention
coiling snakes and eels writhe
at the deeply shallow waters edge
fish are always weaving dreaming
warp and weft among waves
a teeming liquid bolt is spilling
words and intentions tumbling
invincibly distilled grains of sand
breathe iridescent bubbles
that shore birds run, run, run;
dig, dig, dig; eat, eat, eat,
off a table of digested rock
flying now in concert swarming
all sail and no boom recapitulation
diving to reposit slick amorphic
gleaming neural impressions that rain
spatter and dot the lavish shore…
