Day 39 of #the100dayproject - Matunuck Beach


Matunuck Beach

Any time I walk towards the ocean
I feel the sand buff and
peel away the layers
of my armor. I want to be raw
from the salt in my wounds
taste the grit in my teeth.
When I lay myself down onto
the beach, my body is a letter
written to the ocean, tucked away
into an envelope of sand,
stamped by a beach towel,
addressed to the tide, sea foam
and conical shells that house
a body of a creature, not unlike myself.
