Situation Ships by Johanna May
Are voyages to the voided
avowed true.
Foolish unpolished spoils
of the bored spoiled
blue.
Whatever, what ever was
versed is not to do.
One day, wan they may
simply find a clue.
Johanna may sometimes
but most often
Johanna may not
too.

Posted by Nadia Gilbert Kent on 07/22/23 at 01:12 AM I like your use of alliteration throughout this a lot. It feels very sea shanty and at the same time, resolutely flat, which is how I'd imagine a situation-ship feels after the initial charm wears off. |
