Surfer Schmo’s


 Surfer Schmo's

john clare 


It was supposed to be carefree

Fun in the Vilano sand and sea

The surfer I imagined myself to be

A close knit band of brothers free

Living only for the next wave

To our own language we'd clave

From the rip tides each we'd save

Patience with the Barney all gave

But it just wasn't to be

Taking their play way too seriously 

Bitchin' and running off the Bennies

Daring anyone to enter their gnarly

And so I became a happy fruby

Never riding a wave with the dudes

Dwelling on my funboard in the shore break foam

A grey belly far from the homies.
