I write this letter with hope that you reading this know
that a person
unexpected to succeed
was a swabbie under the best pirate the world never knew
That a young man became a myth
a demon in the mind of any who only heard my name
How a young man was able to see himself in another time
& give the kind of guidance he needed then
That this old pirate hasn't given up the sea life just yet
As he has one last pillage in him
So to all you fortunate souls
& future victims who I've yet to cross paths with
Abandon your possessions or abandon your hope for tomorrow because he's returned to collect
