  2. After the Storm (1817) by Caspar David Friedrich (1774-1840). Friedrich grew up in Greifswald near the Baltic Sea, and he visited the nearby island of Rügen all his life. Here he observed the sky and sea in all weathers, and ships at sea was a recurring theme in his art, often symbolising the journey of life. Perhaps this scene shows the firm bedrock of faith saving the ship.

    Titanic: The Stacked Deck


    The Stacked Deck
    by Stewart Stafford

    I am the last man alive on the Titanic.
    Do they commemorate rote chivalry?
    Did they notice in the lifeboats
    as I was savaged by the ravenous sea?

    Into choking darkness, I fell tumbling,
    The ship’s name eaten up in black,
    Freezing water smothered my lungs;
    Even if found, there’s no way back.

    Women and children first, they said!
    Our end certain as the sinking prow,
    Would mothers now nobly step aside
    to grant my final resting place somehow?

    Classless wine, champagne bottles bobbed;
    Numb fingers clasped at Old World pleasantries.
    From the mass grave: “Tomb it may concern…”
    The guilty waves murmur my eulogies.

  23. The Point Reyes Beached

    The Pt Reyes has been one of my favorite photographic subjects ever since I discovered washed up on the shore of Tomales Bay many years ago.
    I drove out to her a couple of weeks ago as there was talk of having her removed as she has now become a safety hazard.
