barefoot beach


let the ocean ground
my poems into sand,
curse the salted bird!
my senses are sharp reflections
diamonds of sun on water.
putting them back together,
I cut my fingers on shards of thoughts


to think like a rock tumbler!
a body of water callous to broken bottles,
I will keep them in my head

until they are polished
and then I will put my sea glass
into a lamp
made out of a jar,
beside my bed.
