September 2009 theme – “drifting in deep waters”
/ “Men adrift, especially in northern latitudes, sometimes imagine they can see things which are not there, such as smoke, sails, ships or land. This is a form of mirage, the same phenomenon that occurs in the desert, and if you experience it, it does not mean that you are out of your mind or even light-headed.”
– Office of Naval Intelligence, from Survival on Land and Sea, 1943
/ Deep Water : Portishead
I’m drifting in deep waters
alone with my self doubting again
I try not to struggle this time
for I will weather the storm
I gotta remember
don’t fight it
even if I
don’t like it
somehow turn me around
no matter how far I drift
deep waters won’t scare me tonight
