i have been on a ship
it is like being on land
i have been on a boat
and watched a yellow
shirt man take away
my breath - shoulders
broad, the blue ocean
encouraging him to
jump in, he turned to
me and smiled. i have
rowed. it is hard. hard
work not meant for a
short woman with short
arms. not much is - still
the calmness of the river
before the break, is what life is
