like the wind that carried ahab
to a far
more distant shore
to a shipwreck that was certain
long before. i can see there's no use sailing
among ships i've known before. it will only bring me more
and more and more
lonely sailing nights
more
racing
dimming lights. lonely nights
and all too
familiar sights. just as water seeks its level
so i only seek to live;
hoping somehow i can find
a way to give. and the sea
it softly beckons
come and go where you've not been."
