I paint pictures in oil called "Waves & Particles".

This ship will sink please remove the barnacles?

I don't mind helping shipping things anchor on a long rope.

Everyone can't come this is not the "Love Boat".

You want to gain from my swimming through the ocean?

My GPS is based off emotions.

You do things on board and call it "inflation".

Then wonder why you end up out of place blame it on navigation.

Wonder why investments flip?

You're taking care of the barnacles before the ship.

I am more than happy to complete my tasks.

I should always be maintained & paid well though I shouldn't have to ask.

My radio is broken had to fix my own suspension.

Dragging barnacles around no dry dock to inspect them.

How on earth could I be the weakest link?

If you do not maintain me first we will all SINK!
