Black Flag From the Sky
Black flag on the lawn
falls in pieces from the sky.
Starlings in command.

Black Fifty, Most Nifty
We raise our glasses while waving the black flag
to friends sailing through the mid-century drag.
When embracing Kathy and Ginny
we will concede to know the skinny
since passions rise steady while body parts sag....

Avast Ye Limerick
Adrift in the cannon debris,
Her black flag grinned menacingly
With hull split in two,
Her captain and crew
Now sail on the floor of the sea.

Callenge Three
Incorporate, fifty word or less, must rhyme, and make some distorted Bell-ish 
sense;

Neutron star in a can of tuna
Feathered boa on my poodle
Cooking Black Flag noodles
sweet candy of concrete and caramel
Oop, I fell in my Fruit Loops!

Good Luck!!...

The Fight
Nantucket was a bully in town
And he pushed everyone around
From storekeepers to clerks
He had no special perps
Until he met Black-flag
Who gave him a special tag
Nantucket ducked and dodged
But Black-flag fist was too large
Nantucket was tag not once but twice
That changed him from nasty to nice
Right now, he’s a bully no more
Because Black-flag tossed him out the door...

Black Flag
The official name is 
Contrails
No more than condensation

The alternate one
Chemtrails 
poo pooed across the nation

I can't help notice
months go by
With none in sight

Are we to understand
that
No plane has taken flight

Yet, when they
Return
The skies are cross hatched

Such coverage in true
Journalism
Won't be matched

I've discussed it with
My brother who many
topics broaches

When they return
I call and say
There's sprayin the cockroaches...

The Pirates Life For Me
yo ho yo ho into the horizon i go 
the wind at my back the wood under my feet 
a  treasure awaits calling my name 
the black flag ive raised warn those who see 
this beautiful dowry i call home 
a bounty still stands a price on my head 
they wont have a trial just shoot me instead 
ill plunge and ill plunder till the gallows call me home 
the pleasure it gives me sends chills through the bone 
i love this life gliding across the sea 
yo ho yo ho a pirates life for me...
