The sea is a bath tub lurching
On a pendulum riding a shuttle loom
Water sloshing the walls
Tidal and visceral
Fighting its past behaviors
Succumbing to itself and its constraints
One tub adjoined to another in ball
The water floats above the oil
Evaporated above the heat
Magnetism, atomic, forever homogenizing
But the air lacks commitment
The mountains stir and slice
Rough blender blades for gases
Moving and moving and moving
Faster then slower
Forward and backward
In and out, cyclically, relative commotion
Trees chopped like broccoli in a smoothie
Is that wind from a mountain?
From the sloshing of an ocean?
Or is the the tree accelerating
While moist air resists and teases
What a strange hierarchy of residues!
What an odd sedimentation,
Electromagnetic and non-local
A network of stratification
This dissipative system, a continuum
Melted material magnetism churns
Layer by layer giving up static
Jostling and shoving
Bulging and shaking
Flying away then raining
In a giant self-sifting sift
