a rough sea

 a rough sea


hard 

on shard sand

stands the end of summer 


harder than harder

the waves pound 

the west rock wind 

stumbles


jet black clouds channel

surf as white as icing

as the sun breaks through

churning it all it all too much 

is to stand braced

this way and that in

the ebb and flow as its anger

bites bites bites


wave-chasing gulls pull

muscles necked in flight

and what emollient could ever heal 

the bite of a wave’s bladed spite


answer me this

that next wave

could you
