Have you held me in your hands?
Underwater snowy sun.
Feelings have been drained to numb,
cauliflower whitened waves.
Calcite foam I call it down
to fossilize these moment's curves.
A sculptor's map, a living rock
below the sky, my crashing shell.

And to those itching footprints there,
and to the water-softened sand.
And to the smooth shell's dying point
and our sun's salt-eggy stare.

I call it down.
