The Pirate and Blacksmith
Ahoy you lovers of scurvy doggeral! "The Owl and the
Pussy-Cat" PotC style!
A poetical filk with apologies to Edward
Lear.

The Pirate and
Blacksmith went to sea
Commandeering a ship so
bold,
To rescue a girl, and
to reclaim the Pearl
From dread pirates
cursed by Aztec gold.
The Pirate said to the
Blacksmith "Will,
Your dad was a pirate
too,
But a good man still
was Bootstrap Bill,
Can you square that and
sail with a pirate crew
From Tortuga to save
your love true?"
The Blacksmith replied
"What you say is a lie"
But seeds of doubt had
been sown,
The truth later
released as a bargaining piece,
Saving lives in
exchange for his own.
To the Isle de la
Muerta they did sail,
A mighty ship battle
was fought!
Marooning survived when
the Navy arrived,
And the showdown was
fought by the sword, the sword,
On the island and
ship's deck by sword.
"Why Jack, you just
wasted that one shot you waited
10 years for?" Said
Jack "Not so, mate"
Our heroes returned and
the law overturned,
Saving Jack from a grim
hanging fate.
But Will and Liz parted
that same day,
Kohl-lined eyes calling
Will where to go,
Their true love
prevailed, and Jack and Will sailed
On the Pearl for
adventure's horizon, Yo ho
Drink up me hearties,
Yo ho!

A/N:All hail late night procrastination! And bad poetry. Reviews? You know you want to, perhaps a DMC sequel will be forthcoming...
