On crooked masts
The crowded sails’ belly is full,
Of hot winded traders at the
Free wheeling privateers
Drunken meetings.
Sharks circling, feeding on
The free trades chum of the slaves,
As they walk the thin plank
Of freedom to their doom.
Swimming toward the land that
Was once theirs. Now shadowed
By the dark flags of skulls and
Bones, corporate conquest
And thundering war drums echo
In the once verdant hills.
