A Doomed Expedition

He caulked his skull with bulky words,

His tongue a swirling sword,

His mouth a stormy sea he could not cork.

Both conqueror and conquered world,

He set his sails towards us.

Our inner groans and wails at his approach

Were wind against those sails;

He turned creakingly around

While behind his back blew wild

A hurricane of ridicule:

Our air of so called cool.
