A Rising Tide

If a rising tide lifts all boats
who kicked most Americans out of the boat?

If you're not in the boat,
but rather knee deep in river mud

a rising tide either
makes you tread water or
makes you go under.

• 2006 Average $72,400 (one measure of where the tide is)
  
• 2006 Median $43,200 (one measure that the average American isn't in the boat)
  

More tidewater marks

Amos was my uncle

I guess I should have read more of what he wrote:

Hear this word, ... you women who ... say to your husbands,
"Bring us some drinks!"

The Sovereign LORD has sworn by his holiness:
"... you will be cast out toward Harmon,"
declares the LORD. —Amos 4:1-3

Nitetime down at Beaufort town (fragment)

Miles above the rest

Nitetime down at Beaufort town
beside a silent sea

Windless ship came sailing in
and gliding up to me

Pilot called, "Oh, step aboard
and leave this empty strand

sail aboard across the sea
to far and distant land

silent crossing waveless main
to where the shadows band."

"Not tonite," I echoed back,
"I've work that yet remains,

child to rear and wife to tend
and smiles before they weep."

When I was a child,
like an adult I talked,
like an adult I thought,
like an adult I reasoned.

Now that I'm an adult,
I put childish ways before me.
