Living in the Heart of the Ocean

Tommy Beas

Awaken son of Poseidon,

The wee hours have arrived

Prepare thy instrument,

Respect thy fathers outcome

Embrace the substance that overcomes all

Marvel at the miracle

With beauty comes destruction

With destruction comes power

Thy instrument creates a masterpiece in thee artists eyes

No thoughts cross the mind of the artist

No troubles effect the masterpiece

At one with nature

Dancing on the surface of the mighty sea

Tasting the success with salt on thy lips

Circumed by the fire in the sky

Reflection upon reflection

A satisfying burn upon thy artist’s cheeks

An equalizing chill comes from beneath

While the mystical powers of nature loiter below

Respect for the owners of thy artist’s dance floor

A sense of fullfillment forces thee to shore

One last dance with nature's fury

An escape from reality and all the worries

Wind hitting the skin causing tension

Cannot keep thee artist's attention

Glancing back for a glimpse of perfection

Living in the heart of the mighty blue ocean.
