HEAVYWEIGHT BEACH WRESTLING, THURLESTONE ROCK, DEVON...

Heavyweight Beach Wrestling


Gargantuan wrestlers cling
To upper extremities,
As their bulks flounder in sodden sand;
Dark, lapping waves flail at immense calves
And their struggle continues for eternity…

Colossal ape hunches 
With sheer exertion,
As its mass lurches in saturated stand;
Light, gripping eddies ebb around mammoth form
And its trial persists amid apprehension…


Pete Ray

Thurlestone Rock in Devon, which from behind looked remarkably ape-like but the door-like hole through the weathered rock reminded me of two huge wrestlers, pushing.




Forever…
