AT THE END OF THE WORLD 13


Took my Coffee on a bed of lava.     
    Ate the meat of a coconut.
Watched a black star eat a round silver fish.
Rode the bus to what I assumed was a bay for it was named "Captain Cook", but was really a village in the mountains.
Hiked 4 miles down a winding road and into Na'popo Bay hoping to camp in what was turning out to be a no camping zone.
Saluted Captain Cook's resting place for no particular reason.
Vagranted someone's back yard. Their back yard just happened to be a coral beach with patches of sand. I cleared a patch of sand in the dark of it's multifaceted coral and put my sleeping pants on. Thought I might build a fire.Turns out it's harder than it looks.
      There was no moon, no stars, just dark. I had strange dreams. One involved me being hunted by a pig who was being hunted bear but just as I was about to be eaten by the bear a giant shark leapt from the water and ate the bear and the pig. I was spared.
   Also, read some of the classified adds in the local news paper and, being an experienced goathearder pays $1,400 a month plus room and board.  Weird times.
