Since Half the world is H2O
Having disregarded exhortations to join the
NAVY
we learned to swim.
Those who do not swim,
learn to sail,
or more bizarrely,
Water ski.
Others, who had not even conceived of water,
Oh they wish for dry land.
But as the continents are defined by the sea,
This is never wholly possible.
--Lou Reed
I copied out this poem for the 4 lines in bold.
