Saturday Morning on an Empty Lifeguard Tower, Saving No One
Moon a torn erasure, islands a lilac smudge. Waves into green, towering up from blue. Surfers as black and as plentiful as crows. But certainly not a "murder." What then? A crash, a foam, a swell? All the while a couple stands on the sand, he behind her with their backs to the sun as if they want to make their shadows one.
As I walk home, more surfers run toward the beach. Carpe, I think. If only I knew the Latin for wave.
