Endless Profusion

Endless profusion of waves on the sea
That make patterns and then break same patterns
Spray on underside of albatross wings
Spray that refracts the soft pale of moonlight

Filled with wonder and worry I lie sleepless
In these sheets of my comfort’s discomfort
Mind’s might could as well be team of huskies
Sledding me under great green northern lights

I don’t know where I’m going even why
Songs of joy and sorrow play in my head
Land and water planet’s shapeless shaping
I am of loose ends and slight beginnings

In the sea of night I go seeing things
Wave green hello and goodbye, land in bed
