Broadside hit with pellets

But it takes more than imagination to sink a ship

Thick-hulled, skull

Fronted affair that would be recognized as menace

If pirates talked about their nightmares

Thousand knot stares met by blinking eyes, indifferent stars

On the horizon. Terrible beauty; Kabuki, masked performers

Keeping everything to themselves. Selfish – many in the sea

Pick bones clean on the final float,

Scavengers with means, shallow Go-Fund-Me’s

Current currency infinite flow.
