spatters mount Fuji as
whalers fly flag

The Skeleton Coast
Morning fog was parting for the day's performance,
and an audience of just me sat cross legged,
waiting for ghosts.
They appeared slowly, one by one.
Old whalers, freighters and, fifty yards out,

primary feathers spread, glistening ebony,
tattered like a tramp's raincoat.
The surf whispered warnings.
