sea moving out
the pier legs
naked again

first date
she wears a Freudian slip
and Achilles heels

alone
in the moonlight
of this painting

getting old
another coincidence goes
without saying

august afternoon
the shopping trolley
lying on the beach

blowing the candle
blowing the candle
blowing the candle out
