Instead

of wave
sand
anchor
shell

rectangle
stacks
dry
hands, pen
console
barricade
cold weather
clouds atop blue
near
open heart
lifeguard shack
red cross
piles of black bagged garbage

no cover
no ant traps
no sea gull dropping food

vertical reeds
sway
abysmal
dance

rotted pines
eroded stumps
weeded lots

houses framing this outgoing tide
wilderness

precise rows of seaweed in
eggplant and puce

leafless wildflowers make X's
to view the water by
