Oneighty's Fisherman Thoughts
Grits Is Food: Concerning Working Crab pots.

Pull them pots
And pull them rite
Or you don't get
No grits
To-nite

Out To Sea: Concerning Loneliness

As I gaze upon that deep blue sea
This weird thought occurs to me
If I were there and you were here
I'd miss you not.
But you would miss me.

Shrimp Trawler Blues: Concerning going broke.

The doors are digging
The nets are spreading
The V12 is hammering down
The Captain is weeping
The Striker is sleeping
For nowhere is there
A shrimp to be found.


From 'Voyages of the Vicky Mary' Copyright 2004.

5. I like them all
But I particularly like "Out To Sea: Concerning Lonliness." It made me think.

8. None
Being married to me requires a great sense of humor. We been married 47 years I think. She came from a seafaring family.

She said she stay so long just to see "WTF he gonna be doing next!"
