Gybe
To change from one tack to the other away from the wind, with the stern of the vessel turning through the wind.
I saw a seagull Drifting above the water I watched a dragonfly hunting mosquitoes Picked a strand of grass, picked my teeth with it Watched the wind change by the color of the waves Felt the fear and pain I'd held for so long Lift
Saw a boat headed straight out to the farthest island gybeing into the wind past shoals Ankle deep in the water, I had climbed down on the rocks How did I even get there Where am I where I am?
