water and wind on the sea of galilee

music and drums, everyone is dancing
feet moving, intoxicated
wine
beer
whisky
eyes open/mouth shut
hips... back and forth, like the boat on the Sea of Galilee
back and forth
the wind covers me, with arms stretched over the water
eyes closed, thinking
too much
need to stop and do something.

Done.

alright, next
repeat
music, drums, everyone is dancing,
moved by wine beer and whisky
and Tiberias
one day, I will tell people about this night
on the lake where Jesus may or may no have walked on water,
where a city rose from a mountain to give me a home for three days
to dance and drink and watch the water and feel the wind with arms outstretched
eyes open/mouth shut
watching as the music pounded the dance floor
and the people on it.
