Sequel to Stress


The silken sea sings to me,
a siren-song to step into the surf.
Seduced by the soft sand sucking my toes,
I shall sink with a smile
into the surging swell,
somewhere safe from the surface-world:
a shelter from sullen skies
and a soulless, singeing sun.
Swathed in sweet saline,
secure from stinging storms,
such sublime submersion!

Do you suppose such a surplus of s-words supplies a strain sickening to sight and sense? Sorry for my silliness. It's a sign of my sanity slipping.
