Which One Are You?

There are only four people.

The Drifter, spun by wind and wave, helpless, says, “Whatever…”

The Drowner, plays for sympathy. “It’s been just the worst week of my life.”

The Surfer, scans the horizon, wanting always, “The next big thing.”

The Magi follow the star. Adjust the sails. Twist the rudder.
