Somewhere In The Wilderness Poem by RIC BASTASA

eddies of the travelling mind
downward the ripples keep coming
wading and wading to the shore
and then coming back again
rewinding and upsurging and then
deadly on the sands the starfish

kegs of crabs and squids
over the lushing greens of seaweeds
foams and air and whispers
ingrained and imagined.

love, love, love and always love
over and over again
until death shall claim all these whims
into that abyss
somewhere in the wilderness....
