The Adventures of Flannelette the Pirate Maiden: part 37
And the swords are out...
Three swords
Are waved in anger;
Two fair ladies
Roll their eyes;
A fight begins; the ladies shrug
And guard the treasure chest.
The men engage in battle
And disturb a lot of sand.
A pointless, endless swordfight
Is the sort they like the best.
After parries, thrusts
And posturing;
The girls
Get quite annoyed;
So Lizzie "faints" dramatically,
To get the boy's attention.
This fails, so lovely Flannelette
Joins in with somersaults;
Revealing certain underclothes
I'm too polite to mention.
And still they wield
Their stupid swords;
And still they
Charge about.
The girls resort to throwing rocks,
And quite enjoy this game.
Liz throws just like a weedy girl;
And misses every time;
But Flanelette's honed cricket skills
Result in perfect aim.
Fed up with
Getting hit by rocks,
The boys move
More inland.
A little church provides
A certain picturesque appeal.
A nearby structure somehow seems
The perfect battleground.
They fight like giant hamsters,
On a giant hamster wheel.
Now, Pintel
And Ragetti
Have abandoned
Drama class;
As fish-faced, shell-draped crewmen
Are emerging from the ocean.
They race towards the treasure chest,
Abandoned by the girls.
An opportunity to gain
From chaos and commotion.
Soon Pintel
And Ragetti;
Lizzie Swann
And Flannelette
Are fighting fish-faced people
And are driven from the shore;
And Liz, quite unexpectedly,
Reveals some fencing skills;
Impaling fish-folk left and right;
A most impressive score.
The chest is left
Abandoned
As they fight to save
Their lives.
Sharp weapons fly from hand to hand
As fish men are repelled.
And Jack takes full advantage
Of their brave and noble stand;
Unlocks the chest and puts the heart
Where only dirt was held.
to be continued...
is this really fair of Jack?
and is another hamster reference strictly necessary?
