Mirabelle by The Shore


A blue-green jewel
Not thing-as-thing
Foot-as-foot
The topaz toe-ring in time

Decaying in beauty apace
Knuckled setting gracefully
Dug in sand on ocean's seem

Sewn together Where the Earth
Begs to tear apart in Volcanic
Ash and one day it will
Without respect to Mirabelle's feet

*

Mirabelle days mirrorball
A host of ghosts singing like
Dazzling billows of ocean smoke
As the lava of life's
Tragedy touches the cooling sea
