The more he looked towards the shoreline , the more he despised everyone he believed sentenced him to this torment . He muttered all sorts of curse and hex on them and all their families . Desperate to change his focus , he looked up towards the sky , and finally found the sun . He realized he had been asking the wrong question since he woke up . It was not a matter of how long he had been there . The real question was how much time he had left . The sun hung low in the west , flaring red like God ’ s wrathful eye . It was evening now . The tide was coming in .
