Random moments
bring portals of memories.

Random moments
bring fragments of peace.

On dust covered dunes
lost in the drones of the sea,

or looking at you
looking aimslessly out of the window.

Watching Candy Floss
dance across the sea.

Listening to bus wheels
stutter like stray thoughts.

Looking for seagulls
like clues to a great mystery.

Clues across the closed pier,
and the chaos of the severed sun
looking for a ticket to ride
as it chases the bus
past an aloof Arcade
before you find the answer
in my arms.
