“It’s more fun to be a pirate than to join the navy” Steve Jobs
This Pirate’s life
It’s a hard nut’s life
Balancing
On the edge of the knife
Romancing
Certainly not without strife
Lancing
With a sword in hand
Advancing
Where ever they land
Dancing
This ragtag band
They call, Pirates

The Treasure Hunters, Part Three
My feet were not used to running barefoot, and I could feel each and every little stick and stone along the path. I just hoped we would reach our destination, soon.
The little rag tag group formed of myself and the recently acquainted pirates finally reached the camp. From what I could tell, realistically, the hike up the hill could not have been more than a few kilometres. Unfortunately it felt more like a marathon to me and my poor bare feet.

But yikes
And holy sh-t!
They really liked it!

Moonlighting
Sitting down, typing
Part from the moon lighting
The room is pitch black
The rhythmic clickety-clack
On the laptops keyboard
Possibly the only chord

In this very absurd
But well known scene
With too much caffeine
Trying to cross the finish line
And meet the deadline
Feeling much like a slob
Even if an unpaid job
Still keeping on writing
Despite only moonlighting

Around the World in Black and White, First Edition
On the busy streets of London
There is no time for boredom
While roaming the ancient ruins for Greece
Breathe and let the moment freeze
Sailing the gorgeous lakes in Italy
Watching the clouds filling the sky to affinity
Sightseeing, travelling or shopping
There is no time for stopping
Around the wide wide world
Me and my camera are hurled
