Fear of the Serpent

The fear of the serpent was and is a mighty man

Always in thought, Doing all that he can

His life forever, His spirit shall not be trounced

His name preceeds him, No need to be announced

His enemies consider him the bane of existence

But for his crew and his love he will always go the distance

In battle he only knows persistence

When attacked in dire straights,he shows full resistance

His ship his steed, a symbol of death to evil

strikes fear into his foes, they know he will go medieval

From slaying the mighty kraken in the ocean blue

Its beak a good luck charm and its eyes a stew

With spear in hand he ran its heart through

His aim is unmatched, his throw always true

To the trodden a hero, to the masses a god

His methods unorthodox and to some maybe odd

But to catch his oppoenents of gaurd is his tactic

Always surprising, his will is galactic

This was an attempt at an epic poem, but I could not get past introducing the epic ship captain
