The structure melts, and every atom, freed,
can dance forth in the swirl of ocean currents
release the particles and join the wave
each impulse starts a chain, and spurs it
far across the water, till at last absorbed;
we see the ocean quiet and inscrutable
though underneath, the currents curl and soar
and waves, concealed, continue on immutable
no information lost, though folded in
to every other impulse, every movement;
the sea so capably accommodates it
and holds all being lovingly contained.
That’s how we move as one, and how we know
each stream of life encompassed in the flow.
