Every measurement is subject to some uncertainty

lyrics

a shipwreck is a physical instance of a single point
in time and space
the term implies a mistake
the error implies a person who made this mistake
but a shipwreck excludes the presence of the person

the ship is determined by instability, human navigation errors, the ship's construction materials, warfare, overloading and other things

the wreck is determined by destruction, the depth of water and the exposure to surface, fish, fishermen and other things

the shipwreck is the physical instance of a single point in time and space
a point in linear or cyclical time
a point in Euclidean or Non-Euclidean space

With what compasses was the ship supplied?
Where were they placed on board?
What sounding apparatus was carried on board on its last voyage?


type trawler
purpose unknown
propulsion steam
date of built, weight in gross register tonnage
dimensions in meters, power in nominal horsepower

before a sleep you calculate the time till wake-up
before a run you calculate the distance, every action is measurement
every measurement is subject to some uncertainty

they were looking around to find out where it was
the landscape so unknown
some shapes
some of them came from the land surrounded by water
some of them knew it and some did not
some of them were able to talk out loud with the other wrecks, some time ago
some of them did not have past
they saw themselves quietly buried
ashy and silent on the island
