I must go down to the sea again

Curious that so many (like me) dread deep sea beneath them.

Yes, that is curious.

I can't swim an inch - can't even float - but I love the water and I love boats. I've never worn a life-jacket in my life. (Fearless to the point of stupidity?)

And like many of us prairie dogs (

), I'm not capable of getting seasick.

There will be no sea in heaven.

Then who the hell wants to go?

Just bury me at sea.

As for the OP: when I was 7 or 8 I used to have a recurring dream that the stair railings at my school had been taken to the shop for repairs. I had to hug the wall for fear of falling over the edge.

Nowadays, of course, that sort of work is done in situ, so I've managed to overcome that fear.
