Down to the Sunless Sea

I have been working diligently on an assignment...in fact you could call it a job. That would make me sort of a consultant. With the occasional ping of email to keep me company I manage I stay connected to the outside world through this strange little laptop looking glass. But tonight, more than most nights my mind wanders through this murky darkness I can't quite comprehend. The drum of hopeful determination I have been beating tirelessly seems like a faint heartbeat a million miles away.
And I'm on a beach... the place I have been trying to get to my whole life but somehow was always pulled back to the dairy land as if I was tethered to the farm with an unbreakable rubber band. The farther I travel the greater the pull until I eventually return against my will zooming at a dangerous speed.

But It seems like I suddenly realized the island I have always wanted to go to isn't a place at all. It is simply a state of mind. I feel like I have reached the shore of this island, this beach, only to find a sunless sea. It's not at all what I expected, but it is still perfect none the less...

I wonder if kubla kahn is around here somewhere. I wouldn't mind some company. we could split a coconut and share a story or two before dawn. Surfs Up. This Mitty has some daydreams to ride.
