Not Drowning

Graphite, smalt blue, silver

Rippled waves

Arriving and arriving and arriving.

Headland heavy, sulking

Beneath lowering sky.

Thin air, so thin. No sun.

Boats low in the water.

Thin people, so thin. A gun.

Falling like pebbles

Into the rippled waves.

Arriving and arriving and arriving.

◄ No wedding?

Thanks David. I was sitting by the sea today, just describing, and this is what came to me. I get overwhelmed by magnitude of everything that's going on sometimes.
