have you ever been in control of something?
other people's lives in your hands.
felt power that you could really effect the things around you?
see changes as you make them.

have you ever driven a boat?
known that you are in all of the control and yet still none?
you tell it where to go.
the helm is under your finger tips for you to move.

ever tried to reason with the ocean?
she will not listen to your petty needs.
her waves crash violently against your hull trying to get through and not around.
she could ruin you but she is the only thing keeping you going.

have you ever been in control of your life?
have you ever lived in the ocean.
one morning you wake up and the oxygen has turned to h2o.
the sunlight is so distant it fights to get to you but the water holds it back.

drowning isn't graceful.
neither is hauling on lines.
stilettos are unreasonable.
logic is illogical.
