The porpoise raised it snoot
from the cerulean water
and stared at the mighty schooner,
The ship was bellowing its horn
and fuming dark thick smokes
not remorseful a bit,
as it dirtied the azure draped skies
and the porpoise wondered,
who invited this unruly guest
to rattle the tranquility
and muddy my sight
