It was a gift, and is engrained with the words “The whole world is about three drinks behind” now it catches up-in humour; of marathons, and sprints, families of credit hustling their own into bunkers at the coast edge; where the crevice can house no more than two, watching the war come from a small peep hole. I look inside and see the wealth of crushed cans and crisp packets, I walk over the mixed grass and sand rock finding a place that stares out to the sea; better than I can, but is happy to seat me for a while, words of love affairs cut into the smoothing rocks; and they wont last a thousand years, but have endured until now, my skin resting upon them, as I accept the seas hypnotising world, which is enough.
