Taking the ferry from Friday Harbor
smooth the water with no whales today
from here nothing looks poor or in squalor
chains of islands into Fidalgo Bay
til we rest at the dock to end our stay
kelp glows with light on these waving sea weeds
a seagull picks up a crab as it feeds
it is time to depart this vessel now
leave behind frivolous desire and needs
return with new vision and a plan for how
How to clear the woods of branches and twigs
arrive next spring to burn them in fire pit
weather permitting we’ll see how life rigs
hopeful of future accept what we get
there is so much work and no time to sit
thankful for still being able to move
thankful there is totally none to prove
enjoy indépendance of off the grid
no power creates a new kind of groove
complex arrangements are better left hid
