Folly
by Britt DiBartolo

We spoke in haikus
looking for shark teeth

beachgoers disapproved of us
skulking       our eyes in the sand

the sea was a memory
a stain inside an echo

I saw you on the pier
where they sell the 3D printed Megalodon tooth ankle bracelets

strangling a sorry iguana
on vacation with his green family

his dinosaur teeth clacking beneath a dinosaur sun
