ships still arrive from far away places,
all the comings and goings,
like reading a baseball boxscore,
all the runs, hits, errors, winner, loser
replaced by
flag, vessel, berth, previous, and next.
the port of Montreal website lists
february 23 as the arrival day for
Vessel: African Jacaranda,
Flag: Liberian
Berth: Ancrage Lanoraie,
Previous: Casablanca/Maroc
Next: Haiti NSA/Haiti
and that doesn’t include the
underbelly and stowaways and snakes and
firework in February!
i feel like walking around town
