Not Beyond This Point

A Poem by Pete
"

The sea-shore is a sort of neutral ground... The waves forever rolling to the land are too far-travelled and untamable to be familiar - Thoreau

Free Waves crash rocks Image - Ocean ...

with a wayward hand

deeply insulted

"Creeping along the endless beach amid the sun-squall and the foam, it occurs to us that we, too, are the product of sea-slime." - Thoreau
