Grimbeau

Big, thick mist carouses car hum and buzz.

Warmer globe, scoop the parrot, wetlands lie low,

Exposed, vulnerable, prone.

Low emerald hopes incline,

in the windless mill pond offing gannets

fight for alfalfa seven times diurnally.

The French fleet lurk behind the  seaweed bar

Waiting for the cows to come home to roost.
