Tail a log using gloud logging read?

Is it not possible to watch the tail of a particular log on the terminal command line using gcloud logging read command? I'm looking for something akin to the well known tail -f invocation on standard linux. I can't find any documented parameter which allows it. The web console provides a play button feature which does exactly this, but when I leave it running for more than 10 minutes the whole tab becomes unresponsive and it feels like it will crash the whole browser.



I've got a decent log filter that I want to "watch" on my terminal, and not in my Chrome browser. However the watch command doesn't read output from gcloud command, it just sits there when I try the watch -n 30 gcloud logging read ... invocation.



Thoughts, suggestions are most welcome.
