On Receding Ice.

March 18, 2022 Lucy

Neither air nor sea, but both at once, the foam

made its death among the plastic bottles

and cairns of whale bone.

Illusion.

She switched off the grammar check

and breathed

a sigh of relief

the words

unfrozen

break and drift apart at will

no commas rules to divide them no

stops

only false starts

and broken shards of sweet

gin-laced ice

melting.
