Coal Harbour

Concrete and glass
Water
Calm below
Crystalline wisps above

Amber and rouge
Blue and black
Skyline betwixt
The sky and sea

The sailboats wait there
Lines rattling lightly against the masts
For their skippers
Toiling behind the glass
Earning a square foot of concrete
And the pleasure of escaping
The skyline
The concrete and glass
On a stiff wind and a tack
Every two days in seven
