The Wave Series: Floatsam

A vast ocean of unmet thoughts

Unborn words lying on the silky seabed

Stories and dreams cloaked within

The participants

Waiting to be uncovered

By the whirlwind of language

I harvest these delicious flotsam

Dictated by my ego

And log it into my journal

Palatial phrases to dwell in

Years of crowded passion

Packed in half a sentence

Will this piece stir another mind?

Cause a tear to shed

Or at least touch a heart,

I shall never know

Tossing on the banks

Of self doubt and the sea
