brusque

it came in
like a tidal wave
overwhelming all before it
drowning all doubt
submerging all fear
throwing all order asunder
once ebullient and effusive
now bluntly brusque
the tide has turned
rushing back to sea
leaving confusion
in its wake
nature's force
deployed and recalled
and I sit on the shore
and hope
awaiting the next high tide
