Rolling Out
These are the epitaphs of the sea
left exposed every night by the tide;
Pounding
pulsing
rolling in
rolling out..
A shadow of a siren’s story,
sly secrets subdued now simply shriek;
Rolling in
pulsing
pounding
rolling out..
Broken sand dollars and shell bits merge,
forging a force to be conscious of;
Delicately dubbed dominatrix,
a strong surge can strong arm anyone;
A wind pounding
rolling in
waves pulsing
rolling out..
These are chiseled mermaid epitaphs.
