All Ahoo!  All Ahoo!
“Rapturous!” cries the streaking blur,
falling straight from the blue,
no wish, no dream can, it, deter.

All Ahoo!  All Ahoo!
Silent, slashing, swooping by;
plans are violently torn in two.
No surcease can you buy.

All Ahoo!  All Ahoo!
Cringing, careless, covert glances
show there’s naught for anyone to do
and provides no hope and fewer chances.

All Ahoo!  All Ahoo!
From distant shores I had dreamed
of a future I thought I knew,
but then the plunging present screamed,
“All Ahoo!  All Ahoo!”
