A gentle commotion
dragging out obscure realities
and
clean chaos, plum of an existence
with cold anger and a
familiar uncertainty that comes
with the hushed clatter of the waves,
an angry calmness,
Similar contradiction
ugly truth
weaning into
searing serenity

My thighs got goosebumps reading your poem out loud. I'm not sure I follow all of the intent of it though. I imagine waves crashing on the sea shore, probably tinged light purple by the false twilight of a rising sun. The pattern of contradictions and distasteful/ugly truths is something I observe in my own life, day by day. The serenity, searing or otherwise, has finally caught up with me, but I still only imagine it as unwanted pain.

Or maybe I'm completely off. Regardless, I'm still enjoying what you write and choose to publish, thank you.
