Pools darken with startles of crabs
live on the California shore-
small warnings of the challenges
awaiting this lifetime.

Oooooo – “startles of crabs” is so fresh! Love it.
Thanks! They scared me when I was five.
Over time I forgot– but Dad reminded me the other night, so I’ve wanted to use that image.
Love “startles of crabs”
Thank you so much! That probably didn’t happen til the 4th revision. Or 8th?
Who’s counting?
