I am fractious.
I smile
I frown
I drift in and out with the tide.
The water is hollowing out the useless parts.
Only the strongest lines will remain.
I am being worn away
Into a curiosity.

I like curiosities! That goes for objects as well as people.

I think I did… but each reader experiences others’ works through their own filters.
