Going on a voyage(metaphysical) and learning of its peril: "Near by wait Pirate ships..."

lyrics

Harbor

So many lights out there upon pleats,
The white tipped black lapping smooth-----
This is our apartment now, how it feels,
Such a strange space recalling all
The packed boxes, the last objects…
What’s left is open as a harbor is open:
Echoes honoring the falling waves…

I know how terrible need is, this distance
Gaping with the intimacy of discarded
Package string, tacks, tape…
I know it unforgettably,
The flow,
Our cove’s slogan…

But the way you were summoned, love,
Was just as articulate.
Nearby wait pirate ships.
Tell them for me
We are more than just cargo
For the whole silky bay.
