i am a whale

photo credit goes to Chris Olsen~

Something big and squishy presses itself to my back

and even underwater i scream

all the way up to the bubbly surface my board gone~ the leash snapped

i look around to see which way the shore could be found and began the long dark swim to the beach while scanning the backs of waves for my surfboard

what seems like hours later i catch a wave in on my belly and crash into the shore with gravelly hair and sand stuffed ears

look around and see some kid down the beach pulling my log up the sand~

"You see any whales ?" the kid asks me, my board dropped, i reach to pick it up and say

"I am a whale."
