CURL OF THE WAVE

I asked a surfer if she was afraid of sharks

Not in the curl of the wave

How about the serrated coral at the bottom of the churn

Not in the curl of the wave

How about the current that could rip her from home?

Not in the curl of the wave

How about the chemical ooze rolling off the shore?

Not in the curl of the wave

How about the warming skies and the pop-up storms?

Not in the curl of the wave

How about the sea of humanity bobbing and fighting for the next ride?

Not in the curl of the wave

How about the next word that has yet to be seen?

She said she had no idea what I was talking about
