Newhaven Arm

A gathering of the tribe to dive and devour.
Kate overdue by some days.
Alex besotted with Alan.
A long, relaxing dive east, parallel to the shingle beach and up along the arm's bouldery base.
It went thus:

A plaice or flounder that would not budge
chose not to flee but grip the ground
defeating my tail tweaks
Two Green eels
Curious/cautious lobsters, blue
Mullets grey and red
Blennies and wrasses and spider crab carcasses
Velvet swimming crabs,
Not swimming but mating
Kelp fronds waving
A fossilised sea urchin and on the shingles
Air-side
A bucket of mackerel and two surly men
rescuing their dead fish from the surge
