Sea Glass
by Eric Weinstein

the day after we die
i wonder if there will still be
picnics, lightning
and if ice will still build
across telephone wires
like sea glass worn smooth by the tide.

may they carry us to the water then,
to where children will still drop
stones in the ocean,
sinking songs
that echo in the jawbones of whales.
