Dover, 1AM
Dover to Calais, 2:30AM.
Calais, 3:30AM.
~The Night Boat~
Looking back from the aft deck
keep England in sight across the ferry’s wake.
Let France come on from behind, slowly,
through a passage of dreams and clouds lit with great expectation,
then turn around, drawing the waves as if they were letters home
telling your mother everything's fine, still asking for money.
