Before the fun begins , here is a nagging question ...
How much of the ocean's waters are displaced by all the ships at sea , and if all said ships were lifted from the waters , how far would the coastal waters dip ?
For that matter , how many gallons do whales and tuna and swimming ducks displace ?
Gives a new meaning to 'Lord love a duck and all the ships at sea' or maybe it doesn't ...
It's cold ... 

Jill and Jack fell up a tree
In the days before
We’d learned of lacking gravity
And magnetized the floors.

Steel socks add fascination,
As to nature’s failing laws:
As if the earth’s rotation
Is not what it once was.

Now ponder we how long we’ll last,
Down here in the trenches;
For sure our shoes will long hold fast
As lakes float up the branches.

The trick is to not only just
Hold to a past already tried
But spend days high in Cumulus.

"As lakes float up the branches." Ha!
(And you may have asked the question that answers the question of how to combat the swamping effects of all that melting ice.)
sure, but where do you put a million boats or put the 'keep off the water' buoys for the ducks that don't know how to read in any case ..? etc .
"in" the water actually means you're shoving it aside. I never think about it that way - cool.
How about all the surfers and fishing boats and how about all the plastic packaging that's floating around out there.
How about the fish?
Fun to think about. Happy Sunday.
I just read this aloud to Baino (out of Allegory Zebras.
Fucking brilliant!
