Sparkle
Or how a one-man boat succumbed to a storm at sea
South-westerly,
Brill turgid on a beaten deck,
Cherry blossom ripples,
A captain observes.
In a moment,
Whipped ropes crack back
Metallic tin zing sings,
Of silent echoes.
Hark! Air asunder,
Ripped on Jericho's bitter edge,
Cracked blood the shadow,
Of a life long lost.
