The morning fog rolled in over the harbor and the fishing boats sat still on the grey water waiting for light.
Nobody spoke on the pier because the day had not yet decided what it would become.

This line is deliberately far longer than any reasonable content column so that it must soft-wrap at least once on desktop and several times on a phone, proving the hanging indent
An indented long line that also wraps: the estuary kept its own ledger of arrivals and departures, salt-signed and provisional, requiring no witness but the moon

so this is more than we can say
after the flood maps were redrawn — "unreliable narrator"
The tide came in across the estuary flats and did not stop at the line the maps had drawn for it, insisting instead
on its own cartography,
salt-signed,
provisional.
What the water wants the water writes.
And we, who read it, wade -- carefully.
