Galleon

Into the void the galleon sails
With many sunken expressions
Never to appear again
Subject of cosmic questions

Her crew are met by one
Who will decide their future
From alien craft up in the sky
Death by misadventure

As up the rigging the creatures go
To reach the world above
Of solitude and many many more
Oh crew of mystic voyage

Annihilation is a word
Used only by the master
As a threat to salty sea dogs
To row this galley faster
And yet is used to show
The world we know
Is not ours by far..........
