Stones bulk large:
depleted plovers
scrape their smaller partners
into minute curves and ramps.
This junction
when the bird's weight
******* and ties the shale in patterns
is the sea lords' making.
Stones sit on
like rigid eyes:
their stare worn silly
by the sea's corrosive pull,
their grating interplay --
uncanny masochism,
while the human heel
depletes the simple curve of eggs.
