I should have jumped overboard, with my rubber raft filled by lungs of despair, that night when the tanker sailed close to the coast of Panama paddled into the white line of a strand be free of the sea’s constant slapping on the ship’s rusty hull and sleep under a blanket of starlight. Had cigarettes and a lighter in a plastic bag, but I hesitated too long, fear of sharks, and the coastline receded into a void. Deflated the raft but promised myself come next port I would get off before I got to be a zombie.
