Inspired by WH Hodgson 
There's a fever on the coast, and it's killing children, 
We are safer out on the sea where wild horses run, 
Sea-horses with tails 
Like if they were whales, 
Coming and going with the tide. 
I'm an old sea dog with a heavy diving gear, 
Overwhelmed by sadness as the ocean-floor draws near, 
Above, the north-winds roar, 
Below, I'm looking for 
Underwater ruins, for to hide. 
Just a dozen fathoms deep is the place where I go 
Roaming in the twilight with a little boy I know. 
Would you say I'm insane 
If you saw the white mane, 
Me and my grandson on a sea-horse ride.
