At The Edge of the World

Once sailors brought back
Tales of how they found a far land
Where sculpted cliffs with old men's frowns
Scowl down on black sand
Where lightning walked
And dark clouds thundered
To wake the Kraken from its slumber
At the far edge of the world

There marbled waves would rear
Before the shore like stallions
To beach the bleachesd ribs
And the carcass of lost galeons
Where in her eyrie grinned
The old crone
Sewing shrouds for sailors white bones
At the far edge of the world

There did they know the Furies
And their fearful four gales
And when becalmed Poseidon's breath
Would fill their tall sails
And so on through uncharted waters
Lured by the Siren and her daughters
To the far edge of the world
