Albatross Shore
Breath the brine in waves and wind Sheer trips that vigil and vile Brave who conquer and will Break the wave thousand times. They wish to steel in steady They command snake to crawl Heave the spirit in obscure decend Pave the gold in gaudy shine.

A bird with a shadow as big as a bus Archaic the sailors that in him will trust Always at sea coming in from the stern Arrogant seafarers will need to learn Ancient beliefs all have basis in fact As may become clear when the odds are well stacked Adrift on a life raft?.. He’s poultry… that’s that...
