Listen to poem:
Blue on blue a sandwich of the sky and sea clutching on jealously to the distant horizon. They both join hands, laugh, and emit their features, creatures and apparitions. Streaming towards you like they're on washing machine wringer rollers, one spinning out and up the other, spinning out and down, painting the scene blue on blue, silk-screened. Seagulls soar. Flying fish leap. Dolphins hobby-horse. Fishes flip, flop and swim. Clouds billow and wallow along. Waves rush onward with crests on their chests. All this and more, is rolled out at dawn, then gets rolled away at dusk, to wring another day.
