The Writing Truck

The writing truck -
It may not be much
Parked beside the roadside 
     Such-

But I have my 
Coffee and 
My cookie and 
A notebook and a phone
     Such -
Writing tools are
     These 

Someday I dream 
To have a modern 
Motor home
Or at least some kind of 
Van 
In which to stand 
And move about
     And even 
Stretch out -
For a little nap 
Here 
     By the sea

But for now it
Will have to do -
At least the view 
Is something 
To write
About

The ocean gives us 
     Pause
          Wild and deep
If it had a tsunami here
     And now
I would be gone 
This life-song 
     Done
In a cataclysm of 
     Fishes
