One hand
tensed but strong
reached out.
Wet with rain
slick, slipping
fingers unfurled
losing hold
falling back
falling through, wet with
remembering a broken chain,
motionless breath
backs turned
fog settled
rolling down, quivering
belly, open mouth
sinking under
...through
sand
held
held
by
dust
dampened by
sweat

There has been a lot of beach and sand imagery lately. Do you miss Jamaica? It certainly can't be the Jersey shore.
