The short pitch
Aggregates
To a crescendo of rocking
The horizon
And the land-blown, dust-distilled
Hills, vague then vaguer, become
A fortissimo of instability
Wild, crazy, mad. Then
Gradually
The motion seeps away
It is calm today
Subsiding
To the moment when we are all completely still
And they are still
And then begins again
Long wave messages
Transmitted short-wave
On ocean swell
