the sail is up high...
the anchor is down...
i see and wonder with a frown
will this one make it...
...or will it drown?

it's destination unknown
it's future dim...
the captain is steering
and everything depends on him...
it bobs dangerously
being forced to go up and down in the deep waters...
the people grow frantic
as they look for the alleged assaulters
and they find none
except for the vast waves in the bottomless sea
thrashing against the ship
as hard as can be.

and then...
with a last shout of bon voyage
and a last cheer
the ship moves away
leaving the shore clear
for me to stand alone on
and wonder with a frown...
will this one make it...
or will it drown?!?
