Sea Stories: A Surprise Visit
It was a random port off the coast of FL, I met my uncle with my leave chit in hand, a day of liberty for he and I to make up for lost years. We sat on his couch watching “The Mummy” enjoying pizza. I cherish that sea story.

(I am a sailor, and have stood many Low Visibility Watches where my relief never showed, here is a glimpse into what it is like to stand freezing wet for your country, starving and alone, in the fog that travels the ocean blue.) Standing watch on bow, Waves splashing to and fro, Soaked to the…

Battle Cry
Trumpets flare as blood lands, In the angry face of Adversity, Justice stabs as victims bleed, Laying on the field of, Empty vices, wasting away, Hollow, void of responsibility, Stand and fight, Bellow and stomp your feet, Raise your guard high, And shout your battle cry.
