"There is one old man...
well into his 80's
that has been painting
these buoys for over forty years in Rockport, Massachusetts."

"The ground swell
is what's going to sink you
as well as what buoys you up.
These are cliches also, of course,
and I'm sometimes interested
in how much one can get away with."
