Generation Kplus 2020

The big, gentle sailor in his blue uniform has everything under control. Diligently as ever, he checks tickets, shovels coal into the firebox and scrubs the deck – he even thinks to feed the fish in the sea. Alas, as he touches the red leaf of autumn that a little passenger left him, he can’t help but think of home. It’s so long since he’s been back. He wonders what it would look like now.
