Pirates

Black, endless eyes, the wind
Flapping. Pitching star to port, 
Anchored cradle.

Grappling, a hook and cries; 
treasures engulfing desires. 
Ransacking, a pillage, flames 
licking wood.

The bottle, no message; only
a Ship.

You handle your pen, like a true weapon. Swing it right, swing it left, who's ever in your way; stand aside, Michael takes no prisoners, mere dead wieght! Write On!
