The Devil's Nola

1) The gulf in our sails
As we kiss the salty sea.
She has made us rich again
Bounty as she.

2) The Devil's lady is fattened
To the full.
We have booty to the hull.

3) Slaves of many stock.
Creole and In'ians of
The finest lot.

4) Happy crew as they cast every lot.

5) The Devil's Nola is coming home,
For Nola is the fiestest place to be.
Every man & woman is free
To be what they want to be.

6) Where even pirates like me
Have a safe place to be.

[Disclaimer: This poem was written as an education challenge to write a poem on blending two subjects, "Pirates and New Orleans (Nola)"].
