The Beach is a Road

The beach is a road

so my car is a boat

and my boat has a sail

and it fills in the wind

and it speaks of my body

it speaks only in code 

it has plenty to teach

so I loosen the ties

and catch up the main

take the tiller in hand

and testing the wind

reach away from the sand

the further I go now 

the farther I am

my worries seem to follow

my thoughts left on land

sheeting in I point higher

parallel to the shore

stretching and leaning 

my length overboard

my rudder it vibrates

and hums out a song

Now, I’m part of the circuit

Now, the struggle is gone.
