Random Dwellings & An Impudent Ocean
(from Anya Simmons’ painting of St Ives…)
Dwellings appear seemingly positioned
At random, rising from the blues
And the eclectic hues
Of a restless, daunting ocean,
As its turbulence and impudence
Tumble a line of vessels
Moored, yet rocked and fumbled by its tide’s insouciance…
Buildings appear irregularly arranged
But clustered, huddling from the abuse
And the seething fuse
Of a listless, taunting ocean,
As its ambivalence and diffidence
Shrug a row of boats
Tethered, yet mocked and tugged by its tide’s insolence…
