strip the bark and sharpen the shrill
coast walk the pause in the rain
cold pier the gentle pull of waves
my sky empty of winged gods
caged bird looks the other way while i pee
on behalf of beaten bodies shadows raise a toast
mozzie slips through fingers dark winds
flesh dissolves at first thought of day
sand and wind the slow dance at the beach
