Long ago when everything came to a calm,
I built a nice fine boat in my mind.
In it I sailed and sailed and nothing ever changed.
Nothing ever went wrong.
I built the boat myself and I made no mistake
It had everything I ever wanted and it would never fail me
Every button had its desired effect and every switch and lever fulfilled its purpose.
It was stable as could be and in it I sailed and sailed.
Nothing ever changed, always the calm.
So comfortable did I become, just drifting along.
Never did I expect the storm to come.
