tidal palms rough
and wearing
the stone I picked 
up later at the 
Sound. Slapping
and crashing
violent, beauty 
living beneath boats,
on my chest 
and past the pond.
Truly loving the wood 
and coal harvested 
by fury known
for hundreds
of years, each peak
leaving no trace. 
Sails sewn into my city life.
Long lenses which see
beyond stable vision, a gift
from my Grandfather,
although shaky we 
both have become.
Maps for free
guide me, around the short-cut,
possibly for lunch. Seagulls 
sweep keeping distance
from Ultimate Day.
Conjured wake
approaches, and 
I am ready for another.
Dying engine, capable of 
silencing the clams.
