if only to return in kind

words no sails ever

delivered but in the sand

abandoned years for you to find

and to recall,

the thinnest roll of time

in your kitchen to forebear

and to forestall what we care

for, what we abandon,

the thinnest cloth to see

through what we’ve had here

words of sea

and sails threadbare
