SELKIE REVENGE


A seal skin glints on tides of froth
by lofty jet crags that rise as spires.
Don's old skiff wails; iron surf rams wood
the fish robe winks; his rapt heart glows.
He primes a net to seize his prize
the selkie folk bark; rocks wince and crack
a svelte girl sings; her raven hair sways
it pins Don fast; she hurls him deep.
