Set Sail In the Sunset

Set sail in the Sunset When the world was big and the ship I was onboard left Trinidad sailed to the Panama Canal. We crossed the Pacific Ocean, and we were alone in a world so big. Then the Indian Ocean, the world was endless finding an island, a needle in a haystack. It was long ago, long before Apollo made the world into a small planet in the vast universe and the moon was a balloon, as David Niven said. Our world has shrunk, it is a tiny place, yet we fight for religion or some silly political views.
