A Ship is Not a Metaphor

A ship we all know about is still shipping or floating.
The people work on it, or entertain themselves, or drink
the milk of various animals on it. They have conversations
about stuff and then they listen back to the tapes
of what they just talked about so they're always
catching up with what they just said.
They scoot around on it and play these
little games on it. I know a lot
about it, so if you need to know
more about it, feel free
to ask me all about it.

Thank You.
