i adore the description in this. "Moon sinks to home— bottom bunk of sea; stinks of pink, and reeks of barren skin." would have to be my favorite line. i feel it's conflicting between old and new. "ocean" and "moon" are parallel, "old" "new"
i feel it describes wanting to save someone as well, while risking their own emotions and life for them. a very well-written poem.

The words in this make me think and some make my heart feel touched. Really.
