I went to sea,
to see the sea,
and all I saw
was all the sea.
I was seasick
upon the sea,
the toing and froing
unsettled me.
The lunch I had
it didn’t stay,
over the side
it drifts away.
I learnt a lot
that single day
I learnt something
I shouldn’t say:
‘Never say ‘rabbit’
when you’re afloat,
your dog might jump
right off the boat’.
I went to sea
to see the sea,
and all I saw…
another me.
