Tide ebbed from the sea,
sublime poetic fervor
charge and impetus
enhanced responsiveness leads
unbounded benevolence.
Briny deep, long crested waves
forever beating the shore.

Deep within the forest
wind across the mountains steep
The waves that don't sleep don't rest
atop the briny deep
The shadows always calling
the wilderness that pleas
The dreams in which you wake up falling
the fear that makes you freeze
The force that crawls within your mind
ever since you were a child
The urge to fly, leave your own kind
to answer the call of the wild
He catches evildoers in his sturdy claws
That's what they get for breaking all those laws
Crime fighting crustacean without a pause
Binding crooks with pincers is such a worthy cause
He lives in a giant seashell in the briny deep
Then bursts upon the scene wherever evil creeps
When a robbery's in progress,he is there with a leap
Bringing villains to justice, so we can safely sleep
Lying here in this life’s final berth,
No longer escaping to the sea.
If the greatest lie of all is not birth,
Death is life’s great treachery.
I think back to the times I spent
Sifting through the briny deep,
Deeply inhaling the saliferous scent,
Pleasure enough to make one weep.
The grave awaits me, I now admit,
As mortality is seeping through.
For if eternity is not a infinite pit,
I hope it ends in the quenching blue.
Sailing home to England
o'er the bounding main
oh to see those white cliffs
fields of green and feel the rain again
sailed away for a year and a day
an albatross following t'was a good sign
with wings wide-spread overhead
'tween tropics weather was fair all was fine
sailors know where the trade winds blow
and trust their compass true
but my days a'roving the briny deep are now done
I'm rolling down a rhumb line arc to you
My head confirms what my heart denies
I'm a prisoner of all your lies
And though it may put me in my grave
I'll stand forever your dying slave
Of this Siren's call there's no defense
Against all logic and common sense
But until the end my heart you'll keep
And bury it in the briny deep
No matter how many tears I cried
A hopeless fool on the day I died
And on my gravestone the caption read
He followed his heart instead of head
