Same place, different view
We stand on a narrow strip
of beach and watch a wild day
ebb on a menacing tide.

At our feet cut-throat clams
and strops of slack, slippery
kelp litter the sand.

Across the bay the square bulk
of Cockenzie Power Station
squats before Edinburgh.

Twin stacks belch tarry trails,
and a dragon's tail
of pylons flexes ever west.

Offshore winter waders huddle,
while a skein of geese unzips
pink-layered folds of sky.

I call the dogs and we turn
for home as night pours
from every rock and crag.
