Storm flirting kittywakes
plummet as waves dance
a reckless saltarello
around the bluff islet.
Luttering brine and summer
squalls engulf.

Hasslewood hides – tooth
rotten in the gum. It bites
the Brigantine Helen and drags
her to the cold coral reef.
She weeps as Norge repeats
her mistake; following
magnetic lines, with no
latitude; the promise of
a brand-new world
dashed on the rocks.

The flag – wind twitched
and angry – reclaimed
for the nation of Waveland.
