flounder-er

I'd say the majority of my vacation involved seeing a lot of water, floating on water, paddling on water, and getting drenched on by water. I also went canoeing for the first time in my life. Word of advice: if you weigh 110-115 lbs, don't go canoeing by yourself when the winds-are-a-blowin' and the rain-is-a-comin'! The wind swept me and my canoe towards a bridge heading out to a river that started somewhere in Canada and probably ended somewhere in Montana. It was pretty embarrassing when the lady in charge of the canoes had to yell to me to paddle away from the bridge in front of a bunch of people standing on the bridge. Whatever, it was still so much fun.

These were taken in San Francisco though, not Canada.
Boats are pretty little big things, even the ones that have been through rough waters.

murky wars

so far from the distant shore / the only time she never feels alone
on the land, her body distorts / in the water, lines are true to her mind
she knows she'll never touch the floor / she can float unharmed by murky wars
and the land is as plain as her skin / but the water shines like the star in her mind

they will never understand / how washed up you feel on land
the spotlight of the sun, it shines on
