BEAMS

This whorl: light

We’re different,
you & me
woman & man
separately together
as sea & sand.

Sand & sea
man & woman
together, separately
obvious mystery.

Permanently at play,
different every day
neither the water
nor the shore
really stay.

Time & tide flow in
tide & time flow out
they bring & take
the shore away.

Storm & river
heap up the sand
extend the land
into the sea.

Back & forth
perpetually
froth & foam
rock & sand
together & alone

woman & man

you & me

shrouded in mist,
in mystery.
