The Morrisville Light once guarded Charleston, SC harbor. It is now but engulfed by the rising water.


Beacon Oh Beacon


Beacon Oh Beacon
Guardian harbor light
Isolated towers height

Beacon Oh Beacon
Surrounded by infinite liquidity
Crumbling antiquated serendipity

Beacon Oh Beacon
Ancient productivity cast
By a saviour past

Beacon Oh Beacon
Maroon banded finger tipped
Iron cage light bereft

Beacon Oh Beacon
Gull winged sail
Circling amid sky blue pale

Beacon Oh Beacon
Demise articulated at last
As waves engulf last gasp
