Poem
In spite of the choice that I made to be wed
The call of the sea was the voice in my head
The wreck of a ship that I bought on a dare
Was ripe for a trip with a little repair

I gathered a crew from the worst of the lot
The pirates I knew in the way I was taught
A bunch of old sailors who fought with a sword
In search of a ship and a captain aboard

We packed a few things and the men were alright
To fish on the strings of the stars overnight
The King's Royal Navy was somewhere in port
And we were the kind who they hunted for sport

The evening was cool with a touch of the breeze
Which filled up our sails and pushed us with ease
No ships were in sight as we set our own course
To conquer the night with the lightest of force

Then one of the men who I thought was the best
Was searching the sea from the top of his nest
When suddenly something he knew that we feared
Was captured by him in the flag that appeared

He knew that our ship was designed as a hoax
For scaring young sailors and female folks
He called to his mates who were cautiously sick
To think that the Navy was on to our trick

The wind in our sails was hardly a storm
And somewhere the fog was beginning to form
The danger we sighted decreased in the mist
Perhaps they decided to cease and desist

But just when the danger was seemingly past
The King's Royal Navy appeared with a blast
They fired their cannons and blew us to bits
My ship was disabled by too many hits

I thought to surrender by all that I saw
But why was the Admiral so quick on the draw? 
And what was the purpose in jailing my crew
When they were just sailing with nothing to do? 

We stood by and watched as the Navy approached
I felt like an egg that was already poached
When something upsetting appeared in my scope
That caused me to cry and to give up my hope

The devil's own daughter who did as she willed
Was holding the head of the man that she killed
She captured his ship and the hearts of his men
To come after me and to kill me again

But when she was near with the navy in tow
To capture my ship and to lay me a blow
She did not foresee what so few can survive
My good friend the whale had swallowed her live!
