'Carbon Cadence'

Filtered through coral
Dogs chase, waves on their hind legs, evaporate
Translucent skin, protecting the figurehead
3 scattered pins, loosely held by the sand

It’s not real
(A faceless warning call)
Your not real
(You’ll miss me when I’m gone)

Ash and olive oil in layers
Molecules of carbon pleading their case
Superimposed white and blue stucco
Grey clouds drone

It’s not real
(is a distant star) it’s a dying star
Your not real

It’s not real
(a final curtain call)
Your not real
(I’ll miss them now their gone)
