Rippling white-capped waves unfold –
Like sea, the sky they brave.
Treacherous white-capped tops –
Like spilled milk under sun spots
Drift to the edge of horizon –
Of terrain that is infinite

Can it be nothing more than new life?
Bounding through marshes
And clover
And buttercup
And moss
And underneath that moss
Death
Will we ever stop
Forming gaps for young children to fall through,
Teetering on the edge– –swinging their legs.
My grandmother's body slowly shifts into the rock, weaving into the dead texture. Eyes faded and grey, seeing more than I will ever know, and yet nothing at all.
