Great, vast, and expansive seas carry me in currents true to unknown lands. Present me with fruit, large or small, with tastes bitter or sweet that will sustain a human for as long as existence remains. I plea not to the sea, merely speak my thoughts plainly into wind as without them my journey would be a fools errand. In this journey my plan always was, where there was none, a way forward, without much in the way of provisions, or a plan should sickness strike do I sail into the thick of this serene blanket that could not have been painted more beautiful on a canvas or permitted wall.
I, deprived of all, oh and how I miss not many things, can sing praise to the fish below me perhaps questioning the nature of my arrival, or if perhaps I shall be food by day's end.
Vast indeed and empty of pretensions, the liquidity available is bountiful yet somewhat unreachable without certain means. I yearn to seek, to reach, but mostly to discover the means. What a life, to think moments ago I slept quietly, being rocked by the waves, perhaps in a moment's notice a tsunami may end my journey and I will end at Poseidon's door. I will knock quite loud and ask for access. If asked why I wish to proceed I will merely express my desire for adventure.
