3 word wednesday...dependence,rumple, kept Ride the Wave Babe
the mantra
rhythmically pounding
like bongo drums
in his head
he just kept going
kept arching forward
his hair rumpled
by the gale force wind
whistling through his ears
his heart in his mouth
that dependence on
the thrill
the thrill
the thrill
could kill
but blissing out
on the ride was
staying alive
staying alive
staying alive
powerful poetry ~ lots of visuals in the words ~ thanks, namaste, ^_^
