“Where the Earth Ends”

 

who am I to say

if the the earth is flat

~ or not, for

 

I’ve only seen the sandy

shores, with its white foamy edges

 

I’ve not been beyond 

that blue horizon

 

I’ve found rocky ledges

where the ocean rages against the coast

 

I’ve not been beyond

those jagged cliffs

 

when you’ve not been

beyond the edges

 

do we really know 

if it has an end
