The Siren's Song

I sped around
a painted ship
the deck, all deck
where she, the song
that lured me there
does captivate
again

but as she sang
she voiced a sea
the mouth, all mouth
cried crew that ran
and heard her tune
enchanted ‘neath
the waves

my Siren calls
repeatedly
my ear, all ear
of all on board
all sailors filled
on melody’s
sea floor
