Emotions toil and rumble, like the unpredictable sea.
Crashing and crashing, they collide.
Clouds roll in, thunder claps.
A captain takes a swig of his rum, he had just lost his wife.
"Take me!" he calls to the storm. "Take me, and leave me no more!"
Lightning strikes; he cackles. For fear is far from his bones.
Waves begin to climb the ship, rocking it like a newborn's crib. "Take me." He whispered brokenly.
Lightning strikes thrice; once for his wife, the ship, and alas, him.
"Yo, ho, yo, ho, the pirate's life killed me."
