Warrior's Bellicose Mischief

The rain drips my veins
Callous draws tight 
Entrenched
Peg leg with 3 teeth

Shaking down the crooks
Blasting through the waterfront
Set anchor to the docks
This place as good as any
Let's get to work

Mutiny at sunset
We'll crawl into graves
And disguise our face

Lofty mermaids arrest
Stolen glances
Our brotherhood sails true
Like nails ringing
Set to live or die

Ah a Pirates life is the life for thee? Ahahaha, I wonder how wretchedly wonderful, or how terrible and terrifyingly threatening this life would be for us. I would love to make a brilliant woman pirate! Be the most feared of all lol
