Patches.
He only had one eye.
When I asked him why,
He said,
“I lost a fight with
A swordfish named
Lance.”
I met a swordfish named
Lance.
He only had half a fin.
“It weren’t no kin,”
He said.
“It was bitten off
By a shark named
Gummy.”
I met a shark named
Gummy.
He had no teeth.
“You can’t eat a reef,”
He said.
“Now all my teeth
Washed up
On the beachth.”
