by Andrew Williams
As thunder rumbles from the nimbus overhead,
a northern Fulmer wings its way over the glassy
glacial giant. The frozen mammoth levitates
above the ocean floor, glistening a deep aquamarine.
Though blue bolts from heaven touch down,
waves whump, and waftings slap the shore,
the solid magic carpet floats at its own pace,
unmoved by the whirling cone of grayish haze.
Yet through the dimness I still see the clowns
of the sea waddling by the cliffs, the humpbacks
high-fiving the startled seaway, and a familiar
figure as a colossal wave holds up a mirror.
