    SOCIETY OR THE SEA?

     ITS NEVER ENDING VASTNESS SMOTHERS
                 THE EARTH WITH TEEMING LIFE.......

    ITS GURGLING BUBBLING SURGING SWEEP
                  IN TIME THERE COVERS ALL...........

    ITS MOUNTAINS AND VALLEYS HOLD A PEACE AND CALM.....
                   AND A RAGE UNDER WHICH THE MIGHTEST FALL......


    I ALONE THINKING I COULD SWIM
                   AGAINST THE TIDES DEEP FURROWED
                                                            AGELESS FROWN..........


    A THOUSAND MILLION CURRENTS
                   TEAR ME FROM MY COURSE....TO THEM.......

    AND THERE UNDER THE MOUNTAINS THAT TIME HAS BUILT......

                    ALONE.........LOST.........AND FORSAKEN........

    ..............................I DROWN,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,.....................
