The waves of rhythm in verse sunk.

The waves of rhythm in verse sunk.

A Poem by andrew mitchell

The seven seas of rhythm
rang out over
the light house passing
as the albatross  shrieked
 " To cry you a song",
drowned in the storm
the dream in a bag collected burst
showering those on starboard
echoing ahoy below the crow's nest.
As hope walked the plank,
sword in its backside,
the flag of skull and bones wavered,
the rocks and waves
treasured their feast,
all thoughts were lost.
