Captain HUEbeard

LEGALLY DISTINCT AND SEPERATE

Hugh Huebeard Askewbeard

had 80 frayed braids

That jutted right out from the side of his face

Of yellow, blue, purple and vermillion shades

He gazed at his razor and gauged his visaaaaage (screw you. poetic license. You try rhyimg like this.)

He hacked and he chopped

And some split in twos

Yellow, blue, purple, vermillion hues

And made he a wig, which he set to fit

On the head of a bald friend. To... Help him with s**t. (I don't know, give me break here. I told you, Rhyming is hard.)

So maybe the Pirates, at least this one soul

Might not have plunder as their ultimate goal

Some could be good, for all that we know...

Maybe we should all take a Piratey poll.

The editorial comments make this a delightful poem, especially since I have heard these thoughts echo in my own head. "I know it's not a perfect rhyme, if you don't like it read something else, or just gouge your eyes out". Also the subject of the poem is delightfully bizarre, this is well writ and well presented.

Poiiiiiirates don't play by the rules!
Lol thx. One in a growing series. Trying to compile them.

this sounds like the real thing
I can see him hacking off landlubbers legs and other protruding necessary parts

Only to give them to the less fortunate. Conveniently, the victims now qualify as such! Having recently lost a limb, and all.

[Dave Brown]

The perfect ending

:) poetic license
Ok, sure. Go with that.

Truthfully though, I thought visaaaaaaaage was good.
Nicely done

I'd claim to offer no apologies, but...
Just too damn polite.
Still not really sorry, though. :P
