The towering arc of a tidal wave
about to crash,
its barrel curling in on itself.
For a moment, in slow motion
gravity pulling, tidal-force propelling
its relentlessness unstoppable,
inevitable, yet still shattering every time.
It collapses on itself.
A terrifying crash, a formidable roar
that will smash and drown you every time,
unless you're prepared.
Yet, in spite of its inevitability
we are never ready.
