Sail Rest

Sean Gallagher


While it's a cliché for me to quote a poet when measuring the importance of the open ocean, E.E. Cummings still put it best, believing that navigating the treacherous waters of the briny deep was more than seeking what lay beyond the horizon: ‘For whatever we lose (like a you or a me), it’s always our self we find at sea.’
