White light
sluiced from trillions
of anemones’ mouths,
all open prayerful,
free-loading on the shoulders of breakers.
Gulls’ wings it flies and crashes,
pours into ravenous bays,
slaking cathedral thirsts
whose morning, pin-shaped eyes
high up on the cliffs have turned corundum
with waiting,
wanting.
