On an Unknown Beach |
I’m a pale intruder on an unknown beach |
My back to the water, my feet in the sand |
Finding no recognition |
As each sign of life |
Invades the precision of this aging land |
An abandoned flipper in a world of storms |
There’s a man on the shoreline |
With a white parakeet |
Trying to make his bird go home |
With increasing continuity endless space |
Gazes 'round the periphery not disheartened |
Wearing it’s most inexpressible face |
My instinct is double as the waves roll by |
But my vision is halved |
And the foam in the green, as the insects |
Talk to the blazing sky |
Wax in the ear, stitch in the side |
Wolves are feast for the blind |
Under and over, the why and the wherefore |
Easy to sit back with time |
Driving discussions like cranes |
Through the car park, setting them all in a line |
All interceding, not yet proceeding |
Misleading doubts in the mind |
I’m a pale intruder on an unknown beach |
My back to the water, my feet in the sand |
Finding no recognition |
As each sign of life |
Invades the precision of this aging land |
