Harbor Stories

Salt whistling through my hands
took my papers, like
sails full, fluttering higher, until
at their height
they unfurled
a flock of seagulls
passing on the wind,
ink from tip to tip.

And as sailors look to them
for guidance home
through the fog,
I looked to them
hoping they'd take me.
