Three black rocks Three black boulders In a circle. Neap tide fizzing And a rusty sandstone cliff. The set scene: magic. Whisps of ocean. Dolphins spray. Primed for silence, I Collected only seashell Whistles to the waves. The perfect t-break tie Between a hyped up human consciousness and source. Ten feet closer to the wailing water, Miles to go inside my head. Ice-block feet, and I have Tempered even breath that echoes sea. Hips swathed in seaweed, vision swims Ears capped by seahorses Eyes wonder-wide Hands numb. My lungs are lead but I am buoyed to breath. Beauty drowns delusion. Life is good.
