Yarr and begorrah, mateys!

Yes, International Talk Like a Pirate Day. LJ goes nuts with yarrs and verily and matey, but that's okay, because pirates are the coolest. Yeah, cooler than ninjas.

In other bandwagon-clambering, the nifty pome meme, bringing some bloody good entries, shipmates. Er, yarr. I was going to post Fleur Adcock's The Telephone Call, but I can't find my copy, avast!

Excerpt, Strange Meetings

The stars must make an awful noise
In whirling round the sky;
Yet somehow I can't even hear
Their loudest song or sigh.

So it is wonderful to think
One blackbird can outsing
The voice of all the swarming stars
On any day in Spring.
