All alone on the beach in the
middle of the night, i'm facing
huge black waves. My insides
vibrate at their thunder. Even
a ten-year-old knows better
than to be standing here.
The soles of my feet are rock
bruised from the cottage drive-
way that leads down to the dunes,
through the sea grass, and finally
to the shore.
Wind blows in my face and whips
my nightgown, it tries to hide, but
clouds cluster on its back.
Even though i see it waiting,
something's making me walk through
the flying sand and wind-spun fog...
