Who Am I?

  I returned to New York yesterday after a week in Bermuda.  During my time in the cursed bermudas, where the ghosts of seafaring men who came to their end on the barrier reefs still whistle in the wind, images came to me.  I wrote down what I could in words.  The result is about twenty poems (I know they are poems because no one would buy them).  I chose my ten favorites which I will share with you, one each day, in ascending order.  While these brief collection of words come from my experiences in the wilderness it is my hope that each one will scream out a reader's name as surely as i heard the dead sailors song.  I am titling the series "Who Am I?"  Please comment if you have an answer.

Who Am I? (poem #10)

i Challenge
a Detective
to Ruin, A Little,
