With my tugboat man so far away somewhere in the vast, vast ocean, I’ve been reading a publication my son sent to the tugboat man as a birthday gift.
Lapham’s Quarterly / Volume VI / Number 3 / Summer 2013
Title: Sea Change
“Standing on shore, we struggle to understand its fury; Lewis Lapham explores the mystery and power of the sea.”
It’s a lovely publication; a compilation of sea stories, excerpts, and poems from Homer to Melville to Marquez to Conrad.
I discovered the beauty of this poem and yeah, I’m missing that big tugboat guy just a bit.
