Walking Across The Atlantic

I wait for the holiday crowd to clear the beach before stepping on to the first wave.

Soon I am walking across the Atlantic thinking about Spain, checking for whales, waterspouts.

I feel the water holding up my shifting weight.

Tonight I will sleep on its rocking surface. But for now I try to imagine what this must look like to the fish below, the bottoms of my feet appearing, disappearing.
