Premium Member Meeting Captain Bee
Captain Bee of the Ship McKee had a reputation all over the Seventh Seas A pirate narcissist, who made people grovel down to their knees He had cold steely blue eyes, and he was fearsome to the point of absurd. I was fearful of this pirate, until I realized that Captain Bee is a canary bird....

I am the captain
I am the brave sailor My crew mates, friends, Clothed in sorrow Like lost children Following the nearest stranger home I lead them with my heart As we sail through the masses Of our duly colored peers But the captain of a ship Isn’t the best navigator I feel the pull of the crowd As I lose myself to the bleak And leave my...

Captain Arcaro
Gallop vapor folded aluminum mare resonator Sun spits decorative decimals bleeding metal Scatter the hourglass pearl crown tidewater brine dusk Tongue sings driftwood bone galleys Captain Arcaro flew sideways through time, his boots full of fishbones, his teeth tuned to minor seventh. The geese were his crew— not honking but howling, in saxophone wails and accordion rhythms. Their wings left chalk outlines on the...

captain
Like a bloodstain she refuses to be cleaned off my memory Nightmares are the only time I see her Lost thoughts the only time I hear her A siren in the city singing a song a longing Pulling overboard the ship I thought I had made I am no adonis I am no odysseus To be in the legends of fables...

Premium Member Threads of Thoughts
Threads of Thoughts threads of thoughts ever trail my mind as a companion that never leaves me lonely as I stroll along the corridors of life in the stillness of solitude in the midst of the multitude at the break of dawn during sunshine of the day in the dim shadows of twilight and darkness of night as a moment without thought I cannot be...

Premium Member My Father's Dream
My Father's Dream A wide and vast horizon beckons me to enter there where oceans echo ancestral voices and gulls paint images in the air. The Saxons and Angles, Hansas and Norse of Hamburg, Oslo, Kiel and Gdansk flows through my blood where the sea is my home. Father, do you miss never having lived your dream of sailing around...

Captain Miller : The First Black Tiger
In the shadowed dawn of distant days, Where echoes whispered of lost ways, There stood a name, etched deep in lore, Captain Miller, amidst the roar. A soldier forged from fire and flame, Bound to cause, beyond mere name, With eyes that held grief and pride, For lands and lives, for those who died. Steel and sorrow marked his path, Through broken fields, through...

"I would rather be on a leaky ship that is mine, than aboard a more seaworthy vessel going where I don't wish it to go"—Poet's alter ego Yes, I know what I’m doing I’m the master of my fate The captain of the sinking ship Seeking harbor in ports whether safe or rocky With gusto I plow through uncharted frontiers Why...

Premium Member The Old Sea Captain
It was not a dark and stormy night and the captain was not on the deck of his ship. He was at the old Spanish Inn at a table by himself. I asked him what he was eating. He said, "Tuna on rye, coleslaw and a mug of beer." He was furiously writing something on a paper napkin. "When it's...

First Encounter
Fierce winds blow across the Atlantic tide, Colder she gets the rougher she'll ride, In matt'r minutes a chill to the bone, Few dare sail her northern zone, Far north the whaling be done, Colder in account for the miss'n sun, The currents below just twist and swell, Above her frozen by a northenly gale, Sails drawn, busting through crests, A captain in hope...

Hold Fast
"Hold fast, don't let the lines slip", The ropes tighten around the mast of the ship, A salty Captain grasps the wooden helm, Waves rip on the horizon, his realm, Quartermaster yells "Storm heading northwest by west", White knuckled the captain shrugs as though a jest, "Hold fast Boys! This'll be a rough ride", The crew gazed upon the captain with pride, From...
