LIFEBOAT Why is it.. that when you try the hardest... Fighting the current... Struggling to keep your head above the foam and the waves and the debris, You always end up with that bitter acrid polluted seawater in your mouth Running through your teeth.. Down your throat  Choking you Until... You slowly give up....leave it to Fate And ...Fate carries you on, until, Your last breath. When Shore is finally in sight Strive!
