sailing the seven seas
one sea splits and divides
until there are seven
newfound creations diving deeper
and spawning new life
giving rise to the fisherman
who never touches land
conquering the art of riding the wave
charting the course of events
by way of the moon and stars
the whale and the albatross
eventually the water washes
over everything
until there is just one fisherman
until there is just one sea
may two thousand fifteen
