There are few beaches in Oklahoma

but in the golden ripple of the plain, I found the sea

I found an ever-changing fluidity

glinting in the sun at dawns and dusks.

That's enough when you are trying

to escape from something

but find yourself too deeply rooted

in a past made out of sandy soil

and a present filled with stunted trees.
