Father and the sea.
JannFreshOff 2003
On the west sea waves on the west.
Towards the edge of the deep.
On the edge of thy love.
On the edge of their father.
On the edge of their place and hope.
Every day has a loop and lead into the sea.
And the sea goes on there loop.
Oh dear, there it is.
Moment to moment that walk aside,
And aside of the edge,
And aside of the love,
And aside of the power,
And aside of every people that betray.
I see skies full of birds and seas.
I see a boardwalk and seas.
I see lighthouse and seas.
I see the seas tides on.
And I see the father on the Massachusetts.
Brace on their hands.
And you will dancing on your own.
