Ships and Souls: Navigating the Unknown | Portland News
Description
A ship doesn’t fear the open sea—neither should we. In this episode, we explore Alice Hotopp’s evocative poem “The Finish,” where she uses the sturdy grace of vessels to mirror our own resilience. From Maine’s coastal shores, Hotopp—a writer and ecologist—invites us to see our bodies as ships, built for storms, ready to sail into the unknown. With haunting imagery and quiet courage, this piece from the Deep Water: Maine Poems series reminds us that facing life’s horizon isn’t about avoiding the tide—it’s about trusting your hull, your sails, and your spirit.
