Lake Of Darkness

There I am in a boat ona lake of darkness.
Rowing in a direction that is unknown.
As I row, I try to find some bearing of where I am.
I notice that there is a lantern on a long pole to shine the way.
But it seems only that the light shines on the boat.
No reflection off the water, no radiating out into the darkness.
An errie feeling comes over me, from all of this.
That I am all alone on this endless lake.
How long will I have to row?  Is uncertain.  How long have I rowed?
Does anyone know?  Here I am in a boat on lake of darkness.
Rowing in a direction that is unknown.
