On the Crest of a Wave Often i wonder why I turn myself into parched words inside a bottle, wait for someone not thirsty enough to cork me in and cast me out to sea... Often I ask the wind why my life is so short on time, but so long on desperation, that I must flit from one heedless ear to another, until I learn to emasculate And accept sincerity in ever smaller doses... That is until tomorrow comes, when a breeze from seaward knocks a lemon branch against my salt-sprayed window pane - now an amalgam of glass and hope - and wakes me up to thought-free running... To a sand dune where I sit against a sunbeam or two... Perhaps to taste the quality of my own abstract hungers... or merely to watch for a corkhead bobbing to my shore, on the crest of a wave.... |
