Reading these comments it turns out I was lucky. Got enough of the poem to start contemplating its meaning and on the edge of getting it I found the last sentence. I actually felt some emotion.
Logically the next thing I did was try to move on. First I tried rowing in one direction for a while, which resulted in seeing the same two other rowers again and again. Then I tried looking down in defeat. The change in light made me think the screen was fading out, but it was probably just the lantern. I tried visiting a floating chest again, nothing. Finding another yellow lantern was also impossible. Lastly I tried hanging around the other two 'people' that were there, we floated around for a bit blabbering incoherent sentences. Finally one of them disappeared and I realised moving on was probably going to be ALT+F4...
