A Wing and a Prayer Small northern communities are tight knit. It’s not that everybody knows everybody else’s business, but everybody is conscious who has not come back from the trap line come dark, whose boats are out on the lake on a windy day, and what flying conditions are like as they listen for that unmistakable drone of a returning Otter or Beaver.

Panting, I run toward the unmistakable sound of a cargo boat. Once I finally reached the shore my greatest wish came true, a boat finally came close enough to the island I marooned on two years ago when my plane crashed into the Atlantic Ocean. I was flying with my brother when we hit the water and I think I was the only survivor, I don’t know. The boat is about seven hundred feet of the shore. Relying on instinct I scream at the top of my screechy lungs, but soon find out that that won’t work…

Two examples of allegories are Plato's "The Myth of the Cave" and Richard Bach's Jonathan Livingston Seagull.
