Angry Play

The wave's great shocking rumbles
hitting harder than one can stand up in
today the ocean shows its anger
against the disparities of the world
Standing on its sandy ground
on the edge of its penetration
the whitecaps dissolve under my feet
the shifting winds blow vindictively
and the surge resounds again
The ocean's anger strong in my ears
depthless, blue water world
I came here to seek peace...
Its rage is vented, tempered with time
I can but endure the onslaught
weaponless... or leave
I choose to stay
and watch the water's angry play
