I write to be the characters that I'm not.


If I were to be
a ripple in the wave
I would wait for something to change
I could not exist on my own
Nor do anything to stop injustice
Injustice of the seas that have carried men for generations and forth to come
Courage! To stand against the sea’s angry winds and taunt foam
Jealous and hurt at the betrayal
shown to her fish, her waters, her life
Courage…
If I were to somehow make right with the sea
and all who look to destroy
I would not want to be a ripple in the wave
I’d rather be the one to throw the stone.
