Who am I today?
Who am I tomorrow?
What breaking wave will swallow me whole?
What moment of stillness will I try to behold?
Where will the swelling turquoise ripples take me?
Where will the moonlight’s gaze bathe my face?
When will the smiling sun cast its beams?
Why am I a flowing partner in Sea’s dance?
Why am I afraid of the tide waves?
Nobody’s crystal ball truly knows.
Nobody has life’s plan whispering in their ear.
Too many mysteries.
Too many veiled horizons.
What am I to do?
To live.
To be.
To breathe.
To be swayed with life’s ocean rhythm.

Forced Compliance Not Necessary
Some people knew this would happen. The chips in our heads, I mean. Everyone laughed. Isn't that funny? The crazy part: even the conspiracy nuts had a mobile phone. Everyone walked around with the "chip" glued to their hand, eyes glued to chip.
