I am in love with Oceanlifting her thousands of white hatsin the chop of the storm, or lying smooth and blue, theloveliest bed in the world. In the personal life, there is
always grief more than enough, a heart-load for each of uson the dusty road. I supposethere is a reason for this, so I will bepatient, acquiescent. But I will livenowhere except here, by Ocean, trustingequally in all the blast and welcomeof her sorrowless, salt self.

Ocean

I am in love with Ocean
lifting her thousands of white hats
in the chop of the storm,
or lying smooth and blue, the
loveliest bed in the world.
In the personal life, there is

always grief more than enough,
a heart-load for each of us
on the dusty road. I suppose
there is a reason for this, so I will be
patient, acquiescent. But I will live
nowhere except here, by Ocean, trusting
equally in all the blast and welcome
of her sorrowless, salt self.
