a double-bladed Sword –
stolen from our very eyes this incoming
wave an ocean in itself
it swirls through blackwater
into our Arms; We
embrace its foetal forms -- We
are Superannuated
with Surprise -- We no longer
caution
Our imagination to be of Use -- We
have
begun to Emerge
through the Tide to become Our
surefooted warriors
under boughs of green -- Tablets
of Stone
dissolve under lichen
and we can breathe, here, amazed
at the hollows
in our back, a black Cat
Stretched upon the Sand
our familiar sighing
in the wind --
