just passed an old sardine carrier
turned private yacht

Local traffic
sardines as a reminder of where I’ve settled

when the Louis R. French was based out of Lubec
and owned by American Can in Eastport
she had an engine and no masts

faring something like this

I’m turned about so much
we don’t connect to the guidebook
in my hand

across from Brooklin
on Blue Hill peninsula
wooden boat school renown
and the magazine

I’m so turned around
the overnight air was humid
we thought the early morning sun
was the moon
we could look at straight
like the nearly full moon
