Legend
Poem about Blackbeard
A legend I am,
King of the high seas.
With my fearful army of,
thieves, robbers, murderers and kidnappers,
I brought fear to all on land and sea.
Rich I was with silver and gold,
which I squandered on women and wine.
No mansions or palaces for me,
For my ships were my life
and the sea my soul.
But today my heroic deeds are forgotten,
I appear in comic books,
for children to read..
In movies, I am the evil one,
always defeated.
Gone are my days,
of splendour and pride,
Blackbeard I am…………….
