If a boat's

If a boat's big enough 
it becomes a nation,
suitable for all declared 
wars and such, but on 
the way up to that, it 
must ship. Out, in 
many ports through 
storm and shit. I

know that's it. How 
it works, I'd say. 
I think. Well, if 
not, whose to say 
out there otherwise? 
Sea ahoy! Call maritime
law on all shores you 
can reach with a crabbed

martial claw of some 
size, and sigh. With all 
this dry land, we could 
love it much more. If 
it weren't for the sand

in our sealost shoes
and souls unspanned.
