seagulls

Say of the seagulls that they
     are flying
In light blue air over dark sea

-W. Stevens


The hills step off into whiteness
People or stars
Regard me sadly, I disappoint them.

The future is a gray seagull
Tattling in its cat voice of
departure, departure.

The waves pulse and pulse
like hearts

-S. Plath
