The Galician Gotta 235 〈2027〉

If you stand on the quay at dusk and watch her nose into the harbor, you’ll see more than a silhouette. You’ll see a history of hands and hatches, of storms swallowed and of nights that smelled of coffee and salt. You’ll see a small, obstinate architecture that refuses to be reduced to a number. GOTTA 235—faded paint, roaring heart—keeps her own counsel. She is both machine and omen, a stubborn line between shore and whatever waits beyond the horizon.
