Tugboat Beautiful Loneliness
Watching them
East River
Pushing cargo
Tankers and barges
Imagine myself at the helm
Pre-dawn and post twilight
Silent except radar
Beautiful loneliness
Spare thoughts
Poems forming
Haven't shaved or showered in days
No contact with people
The fish like me
Dreams come true

Silent except radar.
That held my attention.
Hearing the beep of something maybe on the horizon.
A hopeful contrast to the loneliness tone of the poem.
Your accompanied art work for me reminds me of a
dark wave fixing to crash down on the tugboat.
Great piece PS!!

I'm envious of that experience, actually.
And I love love the painting. My kind of colors!
Funny how being alone in that situation, yet you don't feel lonely. And your poem describes the crowd of things keeping you company.
Excellent.

I walk on an esplanade daily where the tugs are in constant motion up and down the East River.
Each time I feel the aura of life on tug and envision my place in that realm. Just came back from that walk actually. Love it as the day was dank and misty. Perfect for me.
Appreciate the comment Styx

Dear PS,
Almost envious of that solitude. No expectations other than your own with no one to disappoint or frustrate. This write had a pull for me, that draw to water, oneness with something way greater than myself. Great piece! H🌷

Dear H,
This is one of my favorite poems that I've penned.
It details all my need my work and solitude.
I've been a lone rider most of my life.
I need people but not an avalanche of them.
Many thanks for your comment and RL

Art is watery
It fit my solemn mode that day
I could definitely do that job in the next life

It's a real painting with gouache but I put it through my digitizer using X44C Technology and got this result. The green is eerie along with my tugboat wanna be fantasy
