The Reef

The morning sun brought warmth to the reef; awakening the obscure non geometric inhabitants- their bodies defying euclidean geometry.

Their extremities move in sine waves, disturbing the delicate patterns left in the sand by the nighttime tides.

Clouds of silica erupt with the flight of the Bathytoshias and Anguilliformes.

Soft corals waltz with the eb and flow of the tide.

The sunlight is refracted into vacillating patterns by the sea’s surface.

The water seethes with the energy of metabolic pathways awakening from their slumber.

The dance of beauty and complexity plays on far from the shoreline- far from the prying eyes of those who live there
