Scanning
Mans' is to plant toes in sand,
unfurl fist from hand, hitch
to any wave that waves back
and hope it's foam soul
consists of nutritious bits and plans.
Wade and hope for wet walls of fish
spraying mist that turns
any dime or dollar ditched for wish to splashes tall and grand.
Off shore because you miss
being drenched in droplets
you once dropped off of
that insist on flowing along long
and glistening strands
to distant lands.
Hop on and hope you've not been tricked
by ship or witch,
hope you've not been wavered
by the wind of damned.
Hope you've not shunned sure shores
for no more than the allure of mirage made blooms
of blue bliss and dirt, tanned and playing tangible, cropping up atop
the bottom of ocean skies
before desolate eyes by which the horizon's scanned.
False islands, scams,
sun baked buoys, misguided.
I don't permiss you to be survived
by being known as
having resided to any vibe, dream or tribe that's bland.
Yours' is not to be tried and made tired by
high demands, goons or any flash in pan.
Yours' is to look into a tigers glance
knowing
you die, you dance,
and are
alive, entranced,
behind, advanced,
lanced and bubbling,
molding, crumbling.
Take a stride in the sky knowing you'll stumble,
hold your breath, swim for Hubble.
Seven sins, seven seas,
stay slow to hitch or succumb to greed,
some souls grow stitched with ease,
still pick any glint you please,
set sail, but beware any baron breeze..
and paradise found too easy,
and float a bottle if you need me
