33.
a boy woke suddenly one midnight long ago. he felt the bed holding him rocking the way his patched old garvey rocked on the bay, or was it a slower, bigger rolling, the one he felt out beyond the breakers, where he went for the peace to be found there.
in the pale moonlight he wrote these verses on the first blank page he found in his notebook
in this still darkness a sudden unexpected scent of ocean salt no holding back then these waves let them take me out to sea
