O Vagabond

O Vagabond, of fate’s perforce, On crooked wood, upon your course, Daredevil of a sea gull ~ How long hast thou been standing there, To bob on your distorted chair? Are you, as I, remorseful? It carries thee from wave to wave; I quander, is your mount so knave, To overturn and dunk you? So trusting thou must have to be ~ To poise atop a churning sea; ‘Tis not a thing that I’d do.
