Pirate Ship
D. Michael McNamara
What I needed
is for you to board your pirate ship
and sail this ocean
and dig your pirate flag
deep into my soil.
What I did not know
is that you were burying your gold
waiting for me
to come pillage your land,
to make my claims.
So we sit,
guarding the treasures
which we didn’t even want,
staring at each other
from across this distance.
