I hear distances in the waves
being reached
as a salamander creeps
out of the jungle
and on to the beach
a rain-induced sleep
imperturbable
even by tropical gales
chaos in the furrowed brow
of the concentrated wave
the sky holding its breath
as the sea speaks for it
says to the shore:
kiss me, brother
I have agonized over
the depths for too long
I consist of pain
and too much truth
and so I give to you
this song.
