Preface
And I imagine that we are going
to set out the two of us alone
perhaps three and that no one
in the world will ever know
anything of our precious voyage toward
nothing but simply toward somewhere else and
forever
On this sea bluer still bluer
than any blue on earth
On this sea where no one would ever shout:
“Land!*”
Guillaume Apollinaire
