Along the docks of Genoa, a man with bent shoulder walks he is thin and pale like he hides under his winter coat it can be very cold in Genoa, for him the winter is everlasting. Few people recognize him, those who do to avoid him of this huddled figure of cowardice; they see in him themselves the humiliation of weakness buried deep within their soul. Once he had been a popular captain on a cruise liner, he failed, shamed by his nation and worst of all himself. “Vada a Bordo Cazzo.” Rings in his ears. Shouted in his whenever he appears in public. Unforgiven he walks the street night street; he is our ghost.
