Between



Completed in September, this seems appropriate for the coming week
and the uncertainty that will face the nation, and world, after this Friday.


The Captain, My Captain
my very Lord and Master
his word we must obey
or hell to pay to score his wrath
We sailors, iternant, enslaved, unschooled
fed on hardtack, fish and rum
men as hard and soft as me
&
Beneath, beneath
the endless & eternal, cold & fathomless sea
