Pacific Ocean at Daybreak

Inhaling

Undulating

Her pewter skin

Shrouds the mysteries of the deep.

A wave pipe swells,

Collects momentum

And thunders south

Splitting open

In an explosion of snowy glitter

And collapsing.

The litter of forgotten skeletons

Whirls

Into the slur of plankton.

Phosphorescence,

Like electrified synapses,

Ignites sneaker waves

Unearthing and exposing

Buried remnants.

It’s all chaos.

Or is it?
