For the longest time, as long as I can remember, there has been a large ship on the horizon as viewed from my house. Coupling my shortsightedness and its extreme distance, I could glean little more than that it looked like a cargo ship and was painted white. One day it came much, much closer to land, and it looked indeed very large. Roughly the size of your average passenger cruiser, maybe a bit bigger. I could not locate my binoculars to gain any further insight.
The next day I found my binoculars and not only was the ship no longer close but it was gone entirely. The horizon looked oddly empty without it, like the vacancy that a painting leaves on a wall after it is taken down.
Today it is back again, and I cannot find my binoculars.
