Waiting

Waiting 

Listening for words 
to come    empty
blank display

f  e  l  l  o  w  s  h  i  p
prints out on the screen
of my mind
We must take care
offering 
        soup
        warm socks
        shelter from cold
        or heat or fierce sun
Of the ships in port,
two most important,
earthship, friendship

We share this one ship
need tend to it
and each other
