Adventurer of the Year

The year 2006 you were
A nautical imperialist
We watched as you would spread limbs off of land
The year 2005 you were
The greatest man alive
Adventurer of the Year a title grand
In all your gold and glistening vain
You devised a plan of foolproof fame
To sail your way across the Tasmian Sea
And for the wife and blooming babe
That meant you'd have to go away
For thirty days no solidarity

Reckless yet with endless worship
Let us sing you to the sky
Load your ship with influence
And make way out of here
All praise the adventurer of the year
A stroke of oar and paddle slid
From off the sand you quickly did
Everything you had expected
And this next month you told yourself
Would surely be a routine hell
Clearly much more than projected
Load on up your gadgets quick
Your plexiglass and crucifix
Off the harbor you adorned to
Let the gods now weigh their luck
In their eyes do you make up
Or will they decide to abhor you

Reckless yet with endless worship
Have them light the way onto your quest
Milky eyes might make it
Through the ocean crystal clear
All praise the adventurer of the year
