last night at the top of the ship by misterarnie
Last night at sea. The roughest seas we've had. Very windy. Lots of rocking. And rain.

I had a few drinks at the empty bar at the top of the ship and watched the wind shake everything.

Me: You've been doing this a while... what's the worst weather you've seen at sea?
Bartender: This.

At night you can't see the ocean, so it feels more like being on a space ship (or some wholey unrealistic 70s TV sci-fi space ship) floating through space.

Everything is so hermetically sealed, the wild listing of the ship is a welcome change, but instead of imagining us sinking, I imagined the ship simply breaking apart and everything floating off into space.

Again, I had a few drinks.
