Interlude
We've been talkin' about pelicans
Whether there are patterns-
Do they only fly in fives?
And if so, why?
No mortal place
This magic coastline
I walked it 40 years ago
And return in times of change
A place to visit family
To prepare for discontinuity
I walk this beach wondering
The same questions:
What is it all about?
What does the future hold?
Best to simply wheel and dive
Fold wings and fall
Like a pelican from a height
Hoping to catch a fish
