Through the dark jungle of suffocating seaweed -- we hope our way out.

Through the dark jungle
The fluctuating flood-mark, a boundary of -- dry seaweed flowers.

[ The fluctuating ]
The wave of the Oceans as they crash into the rocks With a powerful driven force near the Ocean sea docks The waves driving force that is Driven by strong winds and The Water waves rolling in and out to sea again As you sit or even stand along the shoreline to explore, discovering seaweed, starfish and seashells, along the wet sandy shores On the beach you see a crab as it crawls along the sand, as you begin to enjoy the shoreline while holding sand in your hands The Clashing tides of the high seas are Traveling fast at top speed as to a strong tsunami Slowly rising up to your knees A wonderful feeling to go and explore the Oceans so deep Along the shoreline to explore The Oceans deepest peak B.R.

Oceans
I move from right to left lazily Everything around me is hazy Sometimes a colourful passerby stops for a rest Sometimes they stay, considering me as their nest But they all leave over time Some consider me as grime Some love to nibble on my tips All I rely on is my roots and their grip The sun’s ribbons of light nurture me They play through the waves as I admire their beauty Some days it’s calm and quiet And I can feel the warm sand in my roots Sometimes is rough and rocks and pebbles rip through All of those beautiful green stems I grew But through it all, I grow back To feel the beautiful warm sun touch my tips And the soft touch of sea foams lips ~ 13/2/21

Seaweed
The smell of the ocean The all consuming stench Salt and sweat and maybe Something along the lines of freedom Water and sand and seaweed Twisting and tying knots Around feet and ankles Blinding stunning light Piercing and painful sunlight ... Tasting salt and tears A cold sweat Blankets twisted around ankles The dark stifling heat of night ... I miss living

Living
I once found seaweed In my hair And I search for days For the ocean As if I will open the door There will be miles of water Ricocheting against the door jamb Every wave whispering hello But, there was nothing Only an empty hallway I rest my hand upon my chest To find vibration And when I cover my ears Close my eyes I see the ocean in me

Dedicated to My Favorite Snack
You think you are the sun divine I look at you and you multiply I’m hungry but I can’t eat Give me those eyes will you My best friend, I was so afraid Lay beside you, your body like a warm sandy beach My body like washed up **** trying to get free I was looking for salvation in the rock pools Little snails and ***** would cling and pick at me Til I finally gave in You turned me evergreen How long til the moon pulls you away Leaves me to rest again, dehydrates me into a skeleton serene How long til your silky arms stretch out again And tickle me into an object of a lust, desires obscene I feel you close Like echoes in a tunnel seeming to whisper in your ear But you’ve a long way yet to grow And know just what this strange **** craves It isn’t simple as giving orders, or showering me with delight The heart of the matter lies in the murky deep, The root causes the illness I wear from head to feet Dissolve me in heavy salt and weightless oil Purify me on mountaneous rock Shake me in the willows endless, indifferent sorrow Throw me away to make sure I’m for keeps And maybe then after years of struggle Summers burnt and winters melted, I will still play my vengeful game and give you eyes that say “I’m better, you will never win.”

Schizophrenic lover
There was this guy Bart that I met in Prague, Told me his girlfriend lived down in a bog. “She’s big and she’s green, with long yellow fangs, And seaweed hangs off of her head like green bangs. The first time I met her she bit off my hand, and spit it out next to me into the sand. The next time I met her, this guy Bart he said, “If she bites you again, I’ll cut off her head.” Well this time she bit off my leg, and she even ate Bart, That’s when I decided that I had to start, Thinking of ways to get rid of this creature, So I hobbled to town to talk to the preacher. “It’s love that it need!” he beamed at me, “Just show it some love, and then you’ll see.” So to the bog I went with love to share, Bart’s girlfriend came out, and greeted me with a stare. I shouted at her, “I came to share love!” And offered her the preacher’s precious white dove. Well she snatched up the dove, broke it in two, Threw it aside and said “Now onto you!” I turned to run as fast as I could, But was bitten in half like an old piece of wood. My final thought before I had died, Was that love had solved nothing, the preacher had lied.

Bart's Girlfriend
From beach to beach to beach, glimmering shimmers of sand laden waves lap lazily at your feet. The seaweed masquerade of the crab clumsily dancing amongst the foam is paradoxically poignant but apt. Sighs of relief as the soothing sensation of the sea on hot blistered feet capture the essence of the moment. The simple pleasures of the beach; sand ridden toes and remarkably veined geodes; the golden grains and barnacle encrusted rocks provide a unique treasure indeed. And then comes the gentle pitter-patter of a sunshower- putting a literal damper on things- but uniquely completing the picturesque scene.

Day Two: The Beach
It drags me under Then Spits me up onto the sand My lungs filled with seaweed and water Burning Making it impossible to breathe But panic isn't an emotion Its a friend A familiar presence Because the ocean has done this Far to many times For me to be surprised
