A ship‘s greatest adversary, long vast and blue. Mighty its depths, warping of time, fossils those who once knew, an expanse of such a great distance. The trance tying time. Those sunk below or floating above, and that in between that puzzles a mind. A flow from prior to present to past tense, history with each foot in depth. Miles of voyages and battlefields, beneath the cresting waves, those who once were, lay with those who now are, as the water connects their ways.
