Apparition

creatures

A very low tide. Shallow waves among the rocks. The apparition as if captured in a long exposure sees me. It is hunting for something alive so it looks beyond. The humans, unaware of its desire, chatter as they walk past. We have something in common, this apparition and I. If I wait long enough the tide will cover me and I will wash away like the sand, and then I will know its secrets.
