Briny Pearl

Briny Pearl

Briny Pearl pirate ship
Bested by squalled clip
Marauders aboard cursed
Fathoms bedlam submersed

Arise to plunder once more
Cannons gravely score
Creep along horizon’s veil
Tattered riggings grimly sail

Doomed foolhardy forsake
E’ermore haunt in break
Bedeviled seamen’s plight
Descend by morning light

Briny Pearl vengeful wreck
Sunk low on deflowered trek
Specters flounder in wake
Ennui for sailor’s sake
