Stop! I cried unto the lower blues,
Stop! I cried in vain,
It heeded no call, into its element
It lived through, throbbing in no pain.
When the sand and the skies and the sun
Sat motionless. The water waved
unbashedly. Breaking the frozen
Song of the sea-side, it waved.
T'was alive, like a gigantic monster
Breathing unceasingly into the air.
T'was breathing in me, salty dust
Stemming in me, a living flare!
