Invasion..
Granite protection tries its stone-utmost
to stave away land-slides along our coast.
Take an ocean of rimless diversity
where scrolls of wet power build reign
of threat to explode with ill-sent fury.
Take the intent of human endeavour
to stay the worst moves of saline invasion
storm-bent on owning unfettered misrule.
Try to imagine strain\'s weary shoulders
defiant with bulge of work-hardened veins
attempting to bolster diverted disaster,
Try to conceive how when tragedy\'s brink
floats nearer and roads sink mud-locked
in watery vortex hopes too can crash.
Unbelievably fierce the teeth of sea-storms
that brook no relief until wind speed alters.
