Nordsee
the waters of the North Sea
had receded with the tide
from in front of me,
leaving in its wake
a muggy quagmire of seabed
that so reminded me of myself.

sunk down into the sand
and expose my soul to the
sweet expanse of the North Sea
to let the tide wash me clean
and reclaim me to the water.
