Renegade crows
swagger ashore
lifting unlucky tritons
high into the whirling
wind, dropping them
to the rocks below
shell is rendered
to fine dust
revealing the mollusk
vainly hiding
in the fissured whorl
of what was once
Home
now a splintered chamber
with no exit
from which to squeeze
into the minute space
between falling
and breaking clean open.
