Playtime at the Edge of the World
Costa Rica is a tiny connecting
piece of land
with
a
vastness for anyone to see…
It was easy
standing by the edge of
low lapping water
head
high above
the quiet froth of foam
nibbling at my toes –
Easy
imagining
the sticky sand
stretching beneath the low wall of waves
curling flush below the sky
slipping with the
undertow
being
but the
sliding edge of half
the earth reaching fluidly
to it’s other half –
Because it did.
To the South Pacific.
Past Russia.
China.
The waters mingling asway with seas
surrounding peninsulas
worlds away.
Speaking its same wet murmurs
to different tongues.
We understood.
All of us.
And
me
a fulcrum,
a tiny lever, a
moment, when Time chose to
pause –
And
make note of me –
a bell –
symbolic symbol –
irreducible with atomic meanings.
I felt that that day.
A cleaver
slicing the sheet of earth in two
with my eyes –
Choosing to merely leave my mark.
A toe scratch upon the sand.
Beneath the tiny waves.
The Pacific Ocean also choosing.
Erasing only a part of me.
The mark I left behind.
