Pounding sea against the shore, shouldering
the weight of being onto escargot escapees.
Waves rush in and out, debris shimmering
in the light of the moon. Bickering crabs, conferees
of an undersea metropolis, talk politics
as breeched jellyfish sit transfixed by the dry abyss
that is this beach. So much life! So much death. Intermixed
they bare the bliss of cosmos; men, alas, are anopic.

- Description: A droighneach poem. The Droighneach (pronounced dray-ee-nock) is a loose stanza form. Each line can have from 9 to 13 syllables, and it always ends in a trisyllabic word. There is rhyming between lines 1 and 3, 2 and 4, 5 and 7, 6 and 8. There are at least two cross-rhymes in each couplet and alliteration in each line; usually the final word of the line alliterates with the preceding stressed word, and this is always true of the last line.
