##&%^†«~¨¨ ok at this point i am ready to believe.  ¨¨~«†^%&##
#&%^†«~¨¨¨ it would be so easy to let go and start  ¨¨¨~«†^%&#
&%^†«~¨¨¨¨ to take in water. the boat would be      ¨¨¨¨~«†^%&
#&%^†«~¨¨¨ submerged in minutes, a small list at    ¨¨¨~«†^%&#
##&%^†«~¨¨ first but once enough sea has poured     ¨¨~«†^%&##
###&%^†«~¨ in, it would be quick. the boat on its   ¨~«†^%&###
##&%^†«~¨¨ way to the bottom. rope and bins         ¨¨~«†^%&##
#&%^†«~¨¨¨ floating.                                ¨¨¨~«†^%&#

#&%^†«~¨¨¨ anyway - i'm fairly certain that the     ¨¨¨~«†^%&#
##&%^†«~¨¨ spots move. they're insects or           ¨¨~«†^%&##
###&%^†«~¨ something. when i'm not looking, they    ¨~«†^%&###
##&%^†«~¨¨ shift, they crawl, they grow and         ¨¨~«†^%&##
#&%^†«~¨¨¨ shrink. they congregate                  ¨¨¨~«†^%&#
&%^†«~¨¨¨¨                                          ¨¨¨¨~«†^%&
#&%^†«~¨¨¨ (i'm thinking, i should get a tattoo     ¨¨¨~«†^%&#
##&%^†«~¨¨ gun, draw circles around them. to show   ¨¨~«†^%&##
###&%^†«~¨ that they do indeed migrate across the   ¨~«†^%&###
##&%^†«~¨¨ skin. (or, the circles would trap them,  ¨¨~«†^%&##
#&%^†«~¨¨¨ like salt))                              ¨¨¨~«†^%&#
