The sea wall stands
between
Belief and Hope.
A trickle, a river, a sea
longing to drown
An unfettered prison
Forcefields of light, sound, Community

Smiles pried from empty shadows
False fronts staring mercilessly
be Better
don't stray
The Wall is your Salvation
The sea is peril
Dark and Depraved
Stay dry, stay clean, don't touch

But the glassy surface calls
Is sailing touching?
Gliding over portents
brushing the mirror
