    “Obscurest night involv’d the sky,
    Th’ Atlantic billows roar’d,
    When such a destin’d wretch as I,
    Wash’d headlong from on board,
    Of friends, of hope, of all bereft,
    His floating home for ever left.”

    By a thin sea of flesh
    And a bone coast ...”

    for finding what
    I can’t find,
    and for loving me
    for the line I wrote,
    and for forgetting it....”
