Thank you so much to everyone at the M.O.D and the RAF and to all who have kindly supported my writing.

Tides

July 5, 2026

The tides march back and forth,
towards an eternal shore,
and the land,
it kisses it,
and it begs for more,
and the tide it eats at the land,
and the land gives of itself,
but the tide teases you,
it teases you,
and says will not have me forevermore.
