Crumbly liver-colored sand
distant pewter surf, tin sky
only liquid thing a water-sun
Brigantine, New Jersey, 1967.
Pan-seared beefsteak
fried in its own marble-fat
garlic salt, pinch of pepper
with diced rutabaga, steamed
excellence remembered
for a day or even two.
Recalled forever–
only liquid thing a water-sun
distant pewter surf, tin sky
crumbly liver-colored sand.
