and surly swashbuckling pirates.

 From the pirate ships' mast
Chasing their prey, and gaining fast
They were indeed, a blood thirsty crew...

And caverns
Pirates once walked
Carrying treasure
If I told you I found it
And drew you a map
Would I die alone
Or make you rich...

Halloween
It’s hallowe’en,
Kids are trick or treating,
Dressed as pirates, ghosts,
And many other things,
With pumpkins as lanterns,
Lighting their way.

high on fresh budding branches

The Pirates of Sean Penn's Aunts
Penn's Aunts, patch-eyed women
Cutlass carried, pistol too
You mess with Sean,
They mess with you
Give his movie a bad review,
You'll walk the plank,
That's what they'll do....
