Behold, with dreaded wonder,
This sight of danger thunder!
With eyeballs whitening;
Ears with lightning,
Cleaving peace asunder
Silent through the night;
Yearning for a fight!
Without warning,
daybreak dawning,
Toxic fear and sheer delight!
Gone, but then returned,
Lessons never learned
This deadly cough;
Can’t pay it off
Respect must be, well, earned
Through purple haze, defence,
From ditches and a fence.
We can deny
And fortify
Then drive the Vikings raiders hence!
Yet keep, with pride, this ship
This lightning-sharpened quip
For stealth and speed
Are what you need
To quiver Anglo-Saxon lip
A bright but angry purple and pink sky in the sunset over the dark Viking Longboat, empty and moored at the foreground shore
