Cold and closed, each green tidal lull lingers over rocks. A line of pelicans heads home. Before you arrived, days passed slower. Th salt-grass, the anemone blossom in cycles set up by the moon. I wait like a spring tide. Photos will prove changes happen in increments. Birds wait for sand ***** limpets, littoral fish. You practice naming each in order.

Before You (Anemone)
Cold and closed, each green tidal lull lingers over rocks. A line of pelicans heads home. Before you arrived, days passed slower. Th salt-grass, the anemone blossom in cycles set up by the moon. I wait like a spring tide. Photos will prove changes happen in increments. Birds wait for sand ***** limpets, littoral fish. You practice naming each in order.
