{ back in the.summer - the.heat<waves>.hit(shores)
  they.took(some: amber, from(the: peoples՚.hearts)) }
it՚s.just(a: costal.erosion)


{ then in the.autumn - the.gales.rolled(through: towns)
  sung.like(a: violin, with: all(but: right.sounds)) }
it՚s.just(a: wind.erosion)


{ then in the.winter - the.snow(never: dropped)
  smog.filled(the.void(in: streets, and, in: lungs)) }
it՚s.just(a: chemical.erosion)


{ now in the.spring - the.laughter(is: gone)
  it.feels(like: drowning, though: it՚s(a: drought)) }
it՚s.just(a: flood.erosion)


{ and.there(is: little, left, to: be(carved
  .out.of), the.inselbergs, that: we՚ve.become,
  fires, at: peaks, we.throw(our: fears, into))
  sending(smoke:signals:)(stay.healthy, stay.far) }
A code poem written in programming language called Swift. The words fit the melody of John Lennon’s song “Isolation”, which I encourage you to listen to, it's great. Originally published at https://swiftpoetry.com/inselbergs
