Miami, Please Repeat

Miami, Please Repeat

   For Mari

Clear and hobbled
easy escapes
out of broken nets
of algae, being 
no target of
the bird darts feeding,

Miami,
your better crosswalks
are striped
with schools of small fish,
and your clingy sand
has met its desperate match.

And can you 
please repeat
through reinforced air
what’s now being reclaimed?
Always talking,
talking out the waves.
