-- with ghostlike precision
and simplicity
i measure the distance between my life
and my lifelessness
i look pale in the mirror
and colder in the morning
good morning. a few things making me happy-
a completely clean kitchen
my yellow shirt
nothing planned for today

A few weeks ago, I dug out my Kodak Instamatic 500 camera and shot a roll of 30-odd-year-old film in it. The results were pretty much as I expected. This was one of the pictures. It shows the propellers of the much-storied ferry, the Motor Vessel William Carson. The Carson was the main ferry connecting this island with the rest of North America all through my childhood. I well remember crossing to the mainland in 1964 on that famous boat and several times in later years. It served until the 1970s when it was replaced by more modern and larger ships. It went to the Labrador run in the mid-1970s but, in its second year there, it hit some ice and sank. No one was injured or lost. I was in Labrador that year and some people were very distressed because it was the first run of the year and the ship was carrying a lot of needed supplies for the coast of Labrador. Included in that loss, I was told, was the entire year's supply of beer -- all now at the bottom of the sea!
Some time later, someone retrieved the Carson's propellers (not the beer, though) and they now lie on the lawn of the university's Marine institute.
