Seascape Flowing Through No Time

Fast running waves,
each crest sweating moonlight.

Crushed pebble beach
shape-shifting
pinioning froth to night sky

A saline wind dunks,
strands of spume latched to flotsam,
all conjured out of a fleeting.

I recall now
that I was not there to record all this.
I was elsewhere writing it down.

I hear a mechanical corrosion
of ‘since’ and ‘when’ and ‘then.’
