It began with a wave
the First
to lap its raspy tongue on the shore.
The wave was a force.
Invisible dynamic energy.
The wave carried fields and lengths of Time.
Duration plus location,
across distances of open
impetus
or seize to be
and cease to be
settled at any place on the horizon.
Re-conceptualized as
the First notion
that there was more than
the ocean can explain
than can Be
contained in a grain of sand
just like all the rest
folded back in
to tide and time.
Lost to see…
