like a mirage
reappearing
pilgrim’s rest lies
reappearing
pilgrim’s rest lies
near grasp
then seeing
then seeing
final test
betide
betide
littoral rocks coalesce
shoreside bulwark threatens
Herculean challenge taunts
Herculean challenge taunts
in the dance of gravity
sun and moon effectuate
sun and moon effectuate
counterbalance
tidal pulse quickens
puissance unleashed
puissance unleashed
wind drives
water
water
faster
forwards
furious
forwards
furious
there is a
shattering
breaking
breaking
precious remnants
reach beachside
reach beachside
where the
sand is
sand is
warm but cooling
in fading light
