Where Two Oceans Grieve

Five poems for the Cape Peninsula's chacma baboons, written from the fault line between two oceans and one grief. A migrant's arrival at the Atlantic becomes a witness's reckoning with a killing order - the Waterfall troop, the Creamies, the numbers that don't tally. Where Two Oceans Grieve moves from indictment through interior stillness to the shore where grief becomes a compass, not an ending. For the Amby's - still here, still watching, still waiting to be counted as who they are.
