The Endless

We've been at sea for seven weeks;
for seven weeks we've sailed.
Our world confined to balustrades--
in this place, time stands still.

"Put the jewels in the bag.
We'll take all you can carry.
Should have known when you saw the flag
your homes would soon be emptied."

I walked the earth four centuries;
a plague would see me through.
We introduced the love of Christ
& we killed everyone who refused.

Descend into the ocean, I
am witness to the deep.
The secrets of Antiquity
all flow into the cup as He bleeds.

In the sea for a thousand years;
Millennia, i've slept
with bones and blood, the gold of kings
bourgeoisie and proletariat.

Miles beneath the surface from
an ancient, dreamless sleep---
familiar touch of a sinking ship
has reawakened me.
