Coral Bones

A Nonet

By Kale SinclairPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

We took the ferry to the remote

island surrounded by rogue waves.

We named the currents and carved

inappropriate glyphs

into the moist walls

of the lost caves.

Slit throat, you

sunk my

grave.

    That 'slit throat' line was jarring. Really gave the ending a punch, great work :)
