    The sea.

    You may just be
    As good a parent
    As your children’s friends parents
    Some people may well genuinely like you
    You never know
    You may be an ok human being
    You will never have won or lost
    There was no race
    Something about sunsets
    Something about lost love
    Pain,cancer, bereavement
    Something about pissing blood
    About everybody being useless
    A hairy mole, McDonald’s grease
    Something sacreligous
    A child screaming with bean juice
    On its chin
    Heartache and cigarettes
    Love like leather face
    And the sea
    The sea, the sea, the sea
    The sea.

    For those who believe,
    no explanation is necessary.
    For those who do not,
    none will suffice.

    Seems no matter who we are, we all get a seaside memory. You're a profound poet Jerry

    I doubt it Lesley, but thank you for ever letting that thought form.

    Really enjoyed this poem, Jerry. And I do agree that you are indeed a profound poet.
