Being reactive vs being receptive. Distinction, marks our littoral zone. Away from roving, spasmodic, anxiousness of the sea. So many things affect the sea.....the wind, the moon, the sun......endless. And sea like a teenager with a bunch of nerves keeps tossing and turning to every nuance. In contrast the littoral zone, takes it all in, the drubbing & the trouncing without a sigh. Its impressionability doesn't define its affectibility or becomes the reason for its identity. On co...

Helpless, powerless, up creek without paddle, purblindly she would dog her footsteps as dictated.                              This sun of hers was a black-hole & also the reason for the light in her universe.

Water below catches the  pageantry  uneasiness as high tide....rises up, crashes hard...frothing up as  rabid fangs.  Ocean tries to mirror the reflection by turning into a metallic liquid  that looks menacing, uninhabitable....sequestered.

Water returns to it's candor of cerulean beauty...........................briefly.   Breathe, breathe, bre...
