rivers taught me how to drown
moss-grown rocks stole my eyes
sea cucumbers weave tides of green
kelp ribbons wave over fields of sand
so small the seahorse rides coral
yet reefs slice my heart like blades
where spume flies with your words
the chaotic silence of a cresting wave
take high latitudes in stride
shores lie above drifting ice-bergs
long slow swell of ocean currents
this wind blows passion into foam
back to the curve of ship’s cutting bow
shrimp and crab nibble cold flesh
