THE HIGH SEAS

 

I dream, dream of being out in the ocean, in the high seas, in danger, in the limbo between uncertainty and god, in the unknown fate, in a possible death coming, facing a possible end, an end to life lived, a life lived in too much safety, the safety of sensible decisions, a safety of precautions obeyed, obedience to norms and common sese, a common thread in the lives of many, being one of the many, not being one of the few, the few that sailed the high seas and provoked god, provoked death with purpose, a new purpose proposed, the proposition being acceptance, acceptance of risk, risk to life and limb, risking life in order to feel alive.
