Captain Hazelwood by Deborah S ReganCaptain Hazelwood sat down in the diner,
Lifted his menu and ordered salmon
Captain Hazelwood experienced emotions
That Exxon couldnt tell you about
The oil tankers sail over the oceans curve
And maroon themselves in straights
The moon recedes further from the earth
(It is Gods eye).
