she cried
like a petulant child
denied of her demands
I cannot
replied the captain
no more than
I can divert the sun
upon the sky
She screamed
in desperation
pulling her hair
at the roots
There has to be a way
she thought
oh, this simply
cannot be
But aside from the captain
the crew had
long since
submitted themselves to slumber
The princess and the captain
the only duo
left at the helm
aware of their direction
but without control
