Grand Howl For the Sea

Grand Howl for the Sea Oh I howl! Longing to be free… But I remain, landlocked to a people Growling and hissing you must face your responsibilities! Indebted to a society into which my debts never seem to end. I long to be a Man-child, Hidden from Society Gaining the Wisdom of the Jungle with child-like glee! Mowgli of the impenetrable Jungle, lost but found himself within. Learning how to survive from nature herself When one is accepted as Kin Sown into a land-lubbing society Into which one must work and can never seemingly be free Forever tied to the land and continuing responsibilities... Oh how I long to gain the Wisdom of the Seas Constantly changing as it was free to express Emotions! Without the Constraints of a [Rigid Society] Thrusting itself onto land whispering… Come away with me- Gain the Wisdom of the Seas! Float on your sea vessel Akela, the lone wolf of the sea I will show you the wonders of the world--- If only one would dare to come drift away with me….
