AUGUST
ON BOARD . Where to?Naked and glassy, people stand on their ark,
moving closer together,
merging in a feeling of togetherness.
And yet everyone on board has their task,
their place. Two at the front lean forward
What do they see?

IN THE ALGAE GARDEN . BeachcombersIt is funny to look at the assembly
of colourful “beach guards” in a seaweed garden;
cheerful goblins who missed their currents at the last tide change.
They still hesitate – a blink of an eye and they are invisible.
