A place between
Here
and
There
Holdover from a time
Of neon
Air-con
And movin’ on
Here
and
There
Holdover from a time
Of neon
Air-con
And movin’ on
Ride them
Duck them
Vault them
Or I can stand firm
And let the ocean wash over me
Feel its power
Enjoy the surge of energy
As it flows all around me
While I sit
High upon the hilltop
Feeling the breeze
Wash over me
Is not proportioned
By the difficulty of obtaining it
But is informed
By the quality of attention I offer it
To pick them now
Would be a sin
Though lovely vase
I’d put them in
No matter rooms
They’re brightening
I breathe a sigh
Stop asking why
Stop telling myself lies
Stop being so damn wise
I roll through
On two wheels
Climbing up
Flowing down
Cornering
And gliding
In flight
Amongst
The verdant
Clouds
The most spectacular thing
About this glorious planet
Is the sky
How often
Do I forget
To look?
How often
Have I seen it first
In the photograph?
But the arc of a ski
Carving its perfect turn
As the skier masters the snow
