Poem: Stone On Shore

 

Stone On Shore

 

glintless and grey,

tide-lathered,

eggish and monochrome,

 

here it is,

 

the Earth without azure,

not even laurels

of glitzy cloud-dull quartz.

 

just one of a hapless many,

a tumble of multiple planets,

brooded by dutiful surf--

 

massages of inexorable water,

patient, numb and slow.

 

we all guess what will hatch

from this saturnine nest,

 

nestled in a ceaseless kinship

of weltering dunes.
