Doppelgänger Gangplank
by A. Paige WhiteToo much alone
Too much afraid
Too much unknown
Too much paid
To let us go
By the way
For no show
So they say
Could I tell you a story
Ole storyteller
Like bees buzzing flowers
With some honey on hive's mind
It's a modern tale
That has sat sail
All sewn up
At a rate of knots
That black book
Bought with blood money
Dares to say it holds a name
Spar - with these throat barnacles
(Alternately feeding and fighting
With their feet)
Bowsprit [bee block]
know your ropes, carried away deep six
It's a thieves cat o nine tales
Captain of chewing the fat
Or combing the cat
I've never seen (one) better
Dunnage topping a tonnage
From that trusty barrage
I'm everything on top and nothing handy
An eye splice on a short rope
Given and giving leeway
Haven't got a clew for true
whence such hails from
...
So... She measures faces with her heart and hands
And a camera lens for a few

Author's Note: #sails #olestoryteller #storytelling #salty #foreignlanguage #poundo'barnacle #throatbarnacle
I always have to smile and chuckle
And chew the fat
When throat barnacles
Are in view... ;-}
