My schooner eases into the tiger claw that an umber peninsula juts seaward. The carnelian bay beckons like honey as I aim for twilight's tangerine and sun's waning citrine in amber haze. Papaya clouds whipped by solar winds breathe the siren lure of bronze oceans in the scriptural future to my restless golden heart. 6/30/2018
