landfall in unknown seas - douglas lilburn lyrics
Loading...
simply by sailing in a new direction
you could enlarge the world
you picked your captain
keen on discoveries, tough enough to make them
whatever vessels could be spared from other
more urgent service for a year’s adventure;
took stock of the more probable conjectures
about the unknown to be traversed, all
guesses at golden coasts and tales of monsters
to be digested into plain instructions
for likely and unlikely situations
all this resolved and done, you launched the whole
on a fine morning, the best time of year
skies widening and the oceanic furies
subdued by summer illumination; time
to go and be gazed at going
on a fine morning, in the name of god
into the nameless waters of the world
