Rising Sea

Steel and glass tower over rising seas

Battered glass shakes with each crashing wave

Wave upon wave threatened to break through the transparent barrier

A fish, barely the size of a blade of grass, rides the current, closer and closer to the final pane

All too calmly the glass cracked, then shattered into shards, invisible in the water

The little fish continues on its way, making its new home within the steel tower
