Vicissitudes

Along the shores
clear edges trend
from certain earth
to blurry waves

which rushing seep
through furrowed stone

eroding
every permanence
a coast proposes
to the sea

immersing forms
in frenzied depths

where busted anchors
clutch the sand
which once was vessel
bone and land:

the sediments
of certainties.
