1  Reflections on the Prelude

We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.

—T. S. Eliot, “Little Gidding,” Four Quartets IV

Knowing Fear

Roooll, tharump, roooll, tharump: spice jars, plates, CDs, and everything else slides back and forth in harsh dissonance. Our boat slashes through whale-sized waves. Sounds mix discordantly: the swirling violent wind; waves crashing on deck as if we are slamming into a brick wall; all our possessions skidding back and forth in their lockers; metal against metal as the mainsail boom, although sheeted in, swings just violently enough for the mandrel to break, adding that jarring pattern to this frightening cacophony.

This storm wants us out of its way….
