Sailor! Wake up, quickly.
(They may say my reality is
negotiable, but) Quickly,
wake up. Time flees us,
(fears us!)
(and soon I will merely be
the vague memories
before shape and form)
Sailor, you've slept too late,
the sea fades at dawn, your
beautiful ship is dust in
this light (this light. and dusty.
Put your mind
to sleep, they'll say,
they'll say, you don't need her.)
I'm sorry, Sailor,
I forgot about you while the day
whiled me away.
