Fog

The shoreline had no far edge

The entry opens in fog: one surfer walking the length of a beach that fades out before it ends. Sample copy — the entry's own words replace it.

A passage holds three short paragraphs at most, so it fits the stage without scrolling inside it.

Stillness

From surf to still water

Forms found, frames chosen.

The run turns from breaking water to a pier, a lake and stones that do not move. Sample copy.

Lifeguard Tower, Sunset, 2021

Two palms and a lifeguard tower against the last light. The only frame in the entry that gets a sentence of its own.
