Wow, what a great poem about a captain who may justifiably have to contend with mutiny!! Love the warning in the last few lines. I had a deep sea fishing boat for 10 years and never felt hungry while searching for grouper. People who fished with me might have been whispering such words. After only 8 hours, they wanted to retreat...to eat. (Unless they were seasick.) A great one for my favorites, Gregory!!
