The Bay Today

The Bay Today The bay is green today like grassland a spring day moments before it´s invaded by cattle and cowboys with six shooters full of dust. Yesterday a tsunami struck filled houses with icy water, to day shopping is free you can buy whatever you desire but Persian carpets are water damaged. Angry water is brown as a hord of stampede cattle unthinking just moving forward unaware of death and its own impending destruction. Friendly and soft the bay is today, like a milk carton cow painted green to better be seen on supermarkets shelves that also have blueberry yogurt on display. A, this inlet forever trying to be apart from the sea, yet cannot stop a storm from spitting foam.
