Postcard #32
the ocean has healing properties I’ve seen it help her float when her whole world was sinking I’ve seen it embrace her body when no one else could get close I’ve seen it mend her wounds wounds that went far beyond skin deep

Notes from the reader
Details on the postcard itself: Distributed by E. D. West Co., South Yarmouth, Cape Cod, Mass. Photo by Haydn Mason 17 - view of Nickerson state park in Brewster, Route 6A Cape Cod Mass This is “tent paradise”, as there are literally thousands of pitched tents along the shore of Flax Pond (shown here) and Cliff Pond. I had a 2025 Forever / USA stamp with the American Flag Poem details: The first letter, “t”, was traced twice. Just the downward motion of the t, not the cross and the second pen stroke didn’t go to the “h” in “the”. Then, the “f” in “far” is unique. It looks like they wrote an uppercase “T” and then over top of it added the lowercase cursive “f”.
