The Dread Pirate Rick
The Dread Pirate Rick
by Rick Rucker
Doesn't sound too fearsome, eh?
But be sure not to get in the way,
'Twixt me and my Lady Fair,
White of skin, with auburn hair.
For I will beat you, every time,
With what? A Rose, a Pen, and Rhyme!
If you go after my future Wife,
The Dread Pirate Rick won't spare your Life!
I have sailed for many a year,
Most recently, as a Privateer,
I've seen that others sank,
When I made them walk the Plank!
So, for us, the Seas are fair,
For you, "There Be Monsters There!"
