Hey, I was looking for a clipping on the subject in my drafts and came across this little tidbit. I wrote it about a year or more ago. Has nothing to do with the movie pirates of late. But I thought you'd like it anyway.


Yar she sits meandering the bottom of the sea
Weaving corral hullworks with the busy of a bee
Casting topside coiffure to a barnacled tiara
Crackling deep inside her keep she'll weather come t'marah

Cool poem, MBY, very nice. I didn't know you were so poetical. And nautical.

Is the distillery fire out? Not that I usually drink Jim Beam. Though I have. Hank Jr. mentions it in a song, also.
