Eva On the Beach

An unexplained fragment; a ship`s finger Breaks through the crust of wet sand, Alive with the last push of tide, salt With no start or end;just a horizon Of poor grass and toy ships and the saline tears of fish; If you turn This morning round in a wind of seagulls.. But,you say, Unlike a picture this cannot be changed Unlike a story this is not a ring.
