Think how he felt,
chased relentlessly
on the ocean blue,
in high tides
& in low ones.
Powerful,
majestic,
he was a fighter,
not having much fun.
His blow hole
finally blew blood,
harpooned for his
blubber,
a little oil,
and a gold coin
nailed
to the mainmast.
Swim Moby swim,
may you carry on forever.....
blowing like the wind,
over the endless waters
& into the glorious sun!
David Crosby and Graham Nash,
"To The Last Whale: Critical Mass/Wind on The Water"
