Navigating time and space – at open sea
At open sea
the water is rising
I shall make a boat
invite you
to sit beside me
do nothing
but look out
at the endless blue
amidst the noise
the movement
the speed
the anonymity
the sea of selves

I recall all that you gave me
each tiny bit
you made a difference
I hope you can find your name
it surely is here
even if we have never met
look on the mast
or within the folds of the sail,
along the edge of the rudder
or buried in the hull
I have often thought of you
talked to you whilst painting
wondering
what it might take to touch you
hoping I might get through
my boat is not the same without you
I want to tell you this
amidst the sea of information
I want to be sure
it doesn’t just slip away
get past you
or simply go under
