Attack

 

Attack.

 

Near a clifftop crevasse at sea-drop edge

I found an old garden

between windward and lee.

Facing the ocean and small rock enclosed 

its blossomless graveyard 

exposed hope walled in weeds.

 

Persistent attack infested their corner 

for no storm-shaken plant

survives saline as feed.  

Deserted by labour only sad ghosts

haunt this thorny lost track

to abandonment\'s dream.
