Sailors travel light, they must
They keep few things and know their use
And what they keep has many uses
Sailors trek upon the empty deeps
Where nothing is all there is
What they carry they must need
It must also suffice
For sailors “just enough” is the way to live
And an art
Simple sums the sailor’s way
His wisdom says “cull what clutters”
And this, he knows:
To go far, go simply.
