Notes About The Poem

Mudjin Harbor Tombolo, Middle Caicos

In a Hollow Between Waves

Thinking
of you,
of a time
before the blood of grapes,
in tides of red,
erodes
the tombolo*
of us.

Wondering
if the past 
in the future,
flowing over
like a disordered rogue wave,
deposits swashmarks
in the sand of me.

*A bar of sand joining an island to the mainland.
