the poetry establishment. As a student at UCLA, she could not join the poetry club; she applied, but her application was turned down. She thinks they turned her down, because she was a loner.

~~~~~~~~~~~
Continuing with the third "when" clause, the speaker turns to the natural events of the ocean that ranges upon the shore. He has observed the give and take of the waves beating upon the land causing erosion of the sand, and yet the land fights back and gains control from the waves. What the waves bring to land, the land again offers to the waves in a never-ending battle of opposite natures.
