The red shred of linen cuts
Mountains into halves and
Dyes the sand crimson black,
Burning holes into copper chests.
Brackish wind, no, waves.
Tides can’t decide. They
Run away only to come back.
Dry water shimmery reflects
Bulging eyes, singed black.
Roasting jellyfishes. Die.
The air tight, sand collapse.
Suffocating reds don’t do
Bottled messages, leaving
Crumbling bones, their
Tongueless cries.

This usually means that you may either see her chewing some book in an obscure coffee shop or bungee-jumping in a third-world country.
