Cornwall and the harbor

Where witches went mad more than once and

Until this day

In dreams at least

The lighthouse at Lost Christabel

Squat and hugely tilts

Upon the strand where Grandad's house was built

And having stood the test of time

The starry gale the bloody tide

Grandad's house though gaped with hooks

And filled with books

Could stand no more until

A certain prophecy

Once read - now stood

Before the world fulfilled

Now of these books in Grandad's keep

Some of them were new but mostly they were old

And the oldest was a scroll

A prophecy that read

When the riddle begins

The story will end

August the First 1892

And in the guise of destiny

Grandad quit Cornwall

"I'm a captain of a ship

My ship is charmed, and called Plutonia."

Stories on land, storms at sea

'Tween 1892 and '93

When Grandad sailed for Mexico

Ships charmed and ordinary

Sailed the glidepath to the sun

And when the sun proved false
