Holderness - Modern Man, Bempton Cliffs, 2nd January 2021


We witness one another Alive in uncertain times

The moment over as it had begun

On the cusp of time

Riding the momentum of lifes cosmic wave.


The granduer of ancient coastal cliffs

Once living as we, in their own place in time

This grave of life Transmorphed into white chalk cliff

Time & place scaled by our presence

As we are scaled by their might.


High cliffs which extend far deeper underfoot

Clean water flows of this chalk tomb

The landscape of energy flowing Aquifers

Water, air & light our staple resource, our human need

Lifes need which sustains all now, as life long ago.


The water & chalk beyond time

No thought of past or present, we of the same

We are the water, we are the chalk, we are the cliff

Destined to the same unrelenting fate of life & energy in flux.


Never still always moving & changing

Re born over & over in lifes undetermined forms

Connected to all before and all to come

Our ego diminished at these places of earth & natures might

Alive, Alive
