Survivorship Bias

swimming to escape
is still quite possible

traveling in the direction
where jet lag feels the worst
was not a god idea

rolling over to the back
is still possible

getting stranded short of the destination
drowning is still improbable

trudging though the sand
imagining that you have been sentenced
to life in prison
where you will have plenty of time
to reconsider things

swimming backstroke
in the sand
through and out of the sand
swimming back towards the wreckage

trudging on imagining
that you have deceived prison wards
into believing that you spend time
thinking about colloid hydrogels
consisting of fine granular materials and water

seconds before ignoring
the warning sign
that danger quicksomething sign
that danger qucksomething and water sign
and having that sinking feeling

that traveling in the direction
where jet lag feels the worst
was not a good idea
