About
On my feet
I walked through dense glass
Pushing over tides
Slowly waddling
Like the Laumei*
The sea it breaks
Glass shards bouncing off
my back
It is protected
By the chant of the ancients
Rotating
Levitating
On the wet rooftops
Sub-heaven skies
'Moon oil' (2017) written by Joshua Pearson
*'Laumei' means 'sea turtle' in Samoan
Dedication note
Written for the 2018 University of Auckland Clarinet Weekend Composition Competition, where it was awarded 1st Prize
