The Sea Is the Lips of the Earth

a poem by Roger B. Rueda









The sea is the lips of the earth.
It parts slightly at dawn, a whisper
barely heard—
something between hunger and memory.

Sometimes it smiles:
not for you,
but for the moon
which has never left.

Other times, it pouts—
folding ships into its mouth
as if to say,
I told you not to come so close.
