A canvas sail, wind-battered, heavy with salt and spray, and I don’t think you have the lungs to fill it, to move it we will be buried at sea There will be no ceremony the jewelry I gave you, now worthless, can’t pay for a casket we will be wrapped in sailcloth, weighted with cannonball and pushed into the deep where I can only hope our corpses do not settle next to each other again
