I took the unexploded ordnance home with me from the pebbly beach. She was beautiful. She was my shell, my belle.

I can hear the sea. 

          Don’t listen too long. 

I can hear the sea calling. 

          Don’t listen. 

I can hear the sea calling me home. 

          Don’t.

          Please don’t.
