“galveston” – original poetry
***
galveston is an island city of opposites, duality if that’s your definitional preference 😉
either way, it’s a lot of both the very good, and the very bad
dangerous storms, grime, extreme humidity and heat
but people are an optimistic breed, preferring –
softened fog, cooling breezes, and…
nature’s timelessness…
it’s a sort of natural yoga one can absorb 😉

Galveston
Sea waves crashing when
the hurricane’s winds won’t
stop. Sea crabs biting in water
stiller than glass. Summer from
early May to late September. The
rest of the time only kinda hot.
Victorian houses painted
to look like grown-up
toys. Victorian
homes creaking and tilting
the old fashioned way. Old
warehouses made into malls. A
fog so thin so pure in timelessness
it softens the grime on everything.
Even gives the street lamps a halo.
Then. In the still night. That
surprise ocean breeze. Keeping
everyone in sleepy old Galveston
smiling and dreaming.
