it hunts through the forest of mangrove roots
and what else does the wind do?
it tosses flecks of foam along the sand
and what else does the wind do?
it licks my bald head with a cold tongue
and what else does the wind do?
it lunges and whines under the overturned dinghy
and what else does the wind do?
it shows me how much air is in the world
and what else does the wind do?
it ruffles the chest feathers of the strutting gull
and what else does the wind do?
it whips around my face and tells me not to die
