Offshore pebbles

11th

Deep within the pipework
a shout,
another yard of cable.

12th

Passing on the walkway
a nod,
a noiseless greeting
into the wind.

13th

A crane screams
and six tones
of chemical tank
are hoisted into the air.

14th

An oil can,
crude oil,
history,
running the world.

15th

Yesterday's work,
done today --
memories of a moment's silence.

16th

Somewhere in the dark
the horizon lies,
between these waves
and the moon.
