The Sea
3/19/2009
Here's the thing: you have to dive into the sea inside you. It's dark and cool. Sea caves are even darker, but they're full of secrets. Casks and fossils, bones and gold. You swim into yourself, and you find luminous things in the depths. Evanescent, sometimes translucent. They flutter, slither, speed, dance. All the colors dazzle you. You put out your hands. Sometimes, you catch one or two. You rise, toward the sun that flickers above you like glitter on a child's art project. Suddenly, you're there--the beach before you. The page or the screen. You open your hands. You write. Glory, glory.
