Photo Essay: Sanding ~ The Peninsula
He walked along the peninsula
Seas of cobalt blue to either side
His only burden
Which sea to swim in

His only burden

Never occurred to him
Nor the poverty
Which had elevated him

Falling to the lush grass
Harmless, all around them

Ideas emerge from oceans of possibility
Sink into them, and become lost
They collide, synthesizing one from two
Divide, calving two from one

Sink into them, and become lost
They collide, synthesizing one from two
Divide, calving two from one

I stand there
Ahead and behind
Seeking insight
Which is strongest
Farthest reaching
At the point on which
I stand
In the moment
I stand there

There are times in life
When a sudden change in direction
Is strongly indicated
When a sudden change in direction
Is strongly indicated

Never Turn Back
Sometimes, it seems
Life just keeps throwing curves
And every step of the way
Seems uphill
Or into the wind
Life just keeps throwing curves
And every step of the way
Seems uphill
Or into the wind
Still…
