untitled



in my little boat i have left the shore
and intend not to return
until i reach the shore
far beyond that horizon

and from citizens there i learn
the art of sailing in rough seas
in my small boat
with a hole in the bottom floor

gulls did declare the regime change
in my home town
and the fishing eagles, to me did inform
my house had been consumed by fire

but i intend not to return
to bury the dead
until i reach the shore
far beyond that horizon

and from citizens there i learn
the art of rowing in rough seas
in my small boat
with a hole in the bottom floor
