Egyptian Solar Barge
Viking Stone Ship
Dunkirk Little Ships
Sutton Hoo
Muisca Raft
The Raft of the Medusa
The Wreck of the Amphirite
Broighter Hoard
there is residing in my mind
a small ship of beaten gold
in which my fragile dreams reside
couched on red velvet
it sails on perilous seas
carrying consciousness
through darkening clouds
life and death are held as one
continum dancing on the ocean
rudderless and oblivious
absorbed in the stillness
deep calm resides
woven in the keel's fibre
daily discipline
invisible rib and plank
each day brings
embarkation nearer
towering waves offer
awful excitement
