Michael Jarvis Quotes
Out Of The Brown Mouth Into A Slanted Easterly Rain They Head South Along The Shore, Pushed Toward It On A Light Chop, All But The Pilot Huddling Under Plastic Sheeting That Covers Lumber, Nails, Window Casings And Plantains - The Women Sharing A Seat, Reese Behind Them And The Boatman Behind Him In A Narrow-running Balance. The Land Retreats As The Dory Crosses A Wide Bight Toward The Next Point, Rising And Dropping On Larger Waves While A Seaside Village Of Thatch And Palm Passes Thin And Blurry In The Drizzled Distance. Two Miles Later Another Village Appears, Much The Same But Longer Along The Curve And Then, Past The Point, The Coast Is Tangled In Mangrove, Grass And Sea Grape. The Passengers Peer Out Of The Plastic At A Rain-erased Horizon As The Dory Slices And Slows In Equal Measure And The Boatman Bails With A Cut Jug The Rolling Puddle At His Feet.
