Nervous Anxieties
Fill the car
2 hours of talking
Talking and talking
Process, share, reflect
U-turn
Process, share, reflect
U-turn
Then a break—
Sand Wind Chill Waves
Numb my feet
Enough to remember
The waves, the current
My gravity is restored
Don’t need anything
Nothing at all
Anxieties all gone
Fears all gone
I’m pulled to let it all ride the current
Each waving a vigorous goodbye!
