Battle For the High Seas
Lo and Behold
A Subterranean grip
Alas a woman's mass appears in this Word Trip
She cries for Ahab to head ashore "Give the creature the slip"!
Avast a wide mast unfurls across the ship
The Captain's cries for the harpoon are drowned out by the cracked whip
The wondrous size of the White Whale appears from the drip
The sheer weight of the beast causing the schooner to flip
The showdown is on
between Captain Ahab and Moby Dick
