About This Poem
Standing by the Ocean
Standing by the ocean, I cry
To be rinsed of my fatigue
To be laved of my thoughts and aims
To be rinsed of my hopes and dreams
Then to be drowned in your sameness
Standing by the ocean, I cry.
Oh, Ocean, take me from myself
And let me lose myself fully
In incessant churning waters
Against the rocks and the clumping
Standing by the ocean, I cry
To rinse over and away brain.
Let brain rinse over and away
Till I am left empty that I was
All I knew or was or wished to be.
Standing by the ocean, I cry.
