Prompt: Boats


I love the feeling I get when I’m on a boat. I most frequent water taxis rather than ferries. The constant up down, the sun is usually glinting off the water through my sunglasses and into my eyes but I don’t stop staring. The feeling I get in my stomach when we drop from a big wave, adrenaline washing over, wanting it again. I listen to the waves crashing and watch the white water turning from our wake. I’m headed somewhere, and the boat is what’s taking me there.

Innocent


Its late, probably 2 AM,
Robert is reading and Johnny Cash plays.

Under a duvet
Him and I lying together in the darkness,
I'm not getting up unless he does.
He doesn’t.

So, side by side on the couch, we sleep together
In the most innocent sense of the phrase
