Barnacles
by Sidney Lanier
My soul is sailing through the sea,
But the Past is heavy and hindereth me.
The Past hath crusted cumbrous shells
That hold the flesh of cold sea-mells
5 About my soul
The huge waves wash, the high waves roll,
Each barnacle clingeth and worketh dole
And hindereth me from sailing!
Old Past, let go, and drop i' the sea
10 Till fathomless waters cover thee!
For I am living, but thou art dead;
Thou drawest back, I strive ahead
The Day to find
Thy shells unbind! Night comes behind;
15 I needs must hurry with the wind
And trim me best for sailing.
small shellfish that attach themselves to ships and rocks
