let's go sailing

he loves the water.

he has

a captain's hat to go along

with his latest

boat.

the last one sank

because of ice,

and the one before that

caught fire.

sometimes the engine

works, sometimes

the sails aren't in need

of repair.

but for the most part,

they float.

he wants everyone to join

him on a jaunt out to 

Smith Island or somewhere

in the bay.

no worries if you

can't swim,

no problem,

there's a dingy

to hop onto if the abandon

ship order is given,

and enough

life preservers to go around.
