Kerfe’s RWG 10 — Unused Beach

unused beach old pic

Slip of unraveled rope still flaps
and whips, a fluffy snake pain
marker; company in leprous shade.

I avoid this place of sacrifice but
miss your attention; on impulse
I’ve dressed my ravaged face,

Fascinated in morbid fashion at
its folded and patted ratty clam,
and make my way to unused beach.

Half-buried wreck juts from grass,
a dinosaur’s bones you claimed
as you claimed all in your realm.

The wretch within probes recesses
with a surgeon’s blade; yet again
nurse has forgotten my anesthetic.

Words used:  Flap, fascinated, sacrifice, fold, pat, dress, ratty, clam, shade, impulse, avoid, recess, miss, attention, company.
