The Sea Dog
So little life left inside me, and now my fingers pry
So little life left inside me, and now the deck is dry
So wonderful, so beautiful, and yet the deep wood creaks
It grows amongst the darkened sea, it grows under the peaks
He crept to me, that dark figure, and there in shame I lay
Amongst the sea, amongst the sand, forever I will pay
I told him not to see that man, he drifted on the ocean
I told him not to see that man, he stirred upon his motion
Open eyes, empty stomach, he felt the dead witch call
He filled his belly more than should, his spirit did not fall
Once filled he told of prophecy, a treasure to behold
The greatest man has ever seen, the greatest we will hold
He told of beasts, and monstrous creatures, something that did delay
Horrible things in horrible darkness, things that would betray
Into darkness he did fall, deeper he did go
Deeper still into that black, submerged in thick limbo
He tried his best to fathom their work, and eventually he did sleep
For he did not have knowledge or passion, and this did make him weep
Five thousand days and five thousand nights, this ritual did continue
And still the man had not worked out the essence of this venue
For he was still upon the sea, he thought he had adrift
There was no telling what he was, his spirit had no lift
