The Voices
I collect eyes. Burnt ones.
Of the last summer.
Arms chopped off. 
By a tide of sand.

Ocean In An Autumn Gale
The ocean rolled with white caps
Rising and falling in scattered
Wind blown sprays,
Waves breaking viciously
Upon shoreline rocks,
Jutting wharves,
Tied up little fisher boats.

Sea gulls overhead, as if angry
At the ferocity of today’s ocean
Whipped up by this autumn gale,
Shrieked in flight
As thunders roared
And

I enjoyed it all.
