Gliding just above the California coast, I peer beyond the infinitesimal waves, divots, grains, and spirals as words escape me once again. As a writer, it is my duty to hold onto fleeting moments for just a breath longer: enough to encapsulate the undulations of the tides mirrored by the stillness of the cloud cover. […]
