Walking On the Sea

Floating, coasting on the
sea blowing you out to
nowhere,
    
until you are sinking down into
the sea and never coming
back up when you reach up for the stars,
    
when the sea raises you and
swings you and throws you up,
and you flop right on top of the
flaming sand.
    
Your unconscious as you lie
there from your
thoughts as they all rush
to the center of your body
and rush right back up
and out through your
brain.
    
As you wake up rubbing your eyes,
you go back out on the sea
and feel the wind and you melt back
in.
