Kalaloch Midnight
```
Day and night, mist
Drizzle and fog.
The tide comes in,
The tide goes out.
Land.  Ocean.  Grey

Roaring, boiling
Raw, chattering
Minds to Silence.

“Unable for so long to smile”
```
Unable for so long to smile—
Tense facial muscles ache,
Yes one’s heart has grown
Three fold.

The body relaxes
From previously unthinkable
And unknown tensions.

Future galactic time
