Here comes a poem from the unpublished poetry book named Never touching the stone beach shore (p. 30).

I am clearing
the sand
from the edges of
sunglasses

he told me

I don't want to
break
the sentence

if I
break it

there will be no
return

I'll immerse into
poetry

and what
with poetry
it
disappears

you are
brave
you are
simply
unfathomably
brave

I said

now
that sentence
of yours
is

one
entire
poem

I cannot
see
the way
poetry
disappears

Never touching the stone beach shore (p. 30).
