tiny boat lights shouting...."We will stay" hawk-like i view from above midnight-sea dark, smooth, calmness deceptively benign Chapmans Peak towering, glowering: protective I see darkly, reality unfocused Open desk drawer: i see your huge net-repair needle threaded still with thick twine I'm hit by grief Umlindi youre gone taken by the sea your people lost....lost to your people tossed by the sea taken by the sea joining the universe found(ed) by He
