by José Stelle
Moon out and a forced lull.
No woozy waterspout
Dragging the fractured sea
To a dark rage.
The hacked, wrecked hulls
Heaped on the shore
Loom like whale bones
In a strange glow.
The well bottom is shorn
Of the fleece clouds.
Only some scattered planets
Make a pale show.
Across the water
The dock lights drown
In their own reflections.
All around, demented
Crickets scrape their wings off.
