Sea Wolves

Galleons on uncharted oceans,
paradigms of pirate greed,
hijacked by the vile and shameless,
honest merchantmen take heed!

Storied legends blaze through history,
rape and pillage mark the sway of
buccaneers hell bent on mayhem,
cannons blast in fierce array.

Without compassion for a compass,
murderously resolute,
they take no prisoners, show no mercy,
sack the sea lanes, dissolute.
