Time and Tide

Erosion of More than Beaches

By: Charles Giuliano - Apr 27, 2015

Tide

Walking the beach
Each day
This week in
North Truro
Except Monday
When it rained
Early Spring
Debris washed up
Over the road
Cottages
So close to the shore
Creation
17.7 billion years ago
More stars
Than grains of sand
Beaches of the world
Yet for our planet
Puny Earth in
A nothing galaxy
Endgame
Man’s inhumanity
Greed and growth
Too many
Squandering resources
Rising oceans
Provincetown like Venice
A matter of time
All that expensive real estate
Revelers
Evoking the Decameron
Locked into castles of lust
Tea dances
At the Boat Slip
All those precious bars and shops
Swarming with tourists
Exploring
Galleries of banality
Washed out to sea
Atlantic
Or Atlantis
