The Boat

Let me be… let me be, let me travel from land to sea, why oh why d’you put me here, this land around is full of fear.

The sea is where free energy flows, the water is, all I know.

Let me float with wind and tide, let me escape these humans who have no eyes,

No eyes to see what’s wrong, no freedom to feel their inner song, to shout out loud, to feel their soul, they just dig and dig inside their hole.

But when they realise they are in too deep, the sides to climb are just too steep.

So please release me from this tree and let me feel the water, surround me.

They didn’t have long, Darren jumped out of the car, pulled his hat down to cover his eyes and shouted ‘Full’ at the attendant. Half running, half walking he entered the shop to pay. Moments later he returned to see Andy starring into the middle distance.

‘What? It’s them?’ He said, there was a moment of silence between them, Darren’s heart started to beat ten to the dozen, he followed Andy’s gaze expecting to see a line of Police cars, but he could see nothing of the kind.

‘No…’ Andy said slowly… ‘Look at that fucking sunset… Wow’
