- Hey, what do we got here? Poetry. - Hey, give it back.
- We have a poet on board. - May I have my book back, please?
Why don't you read us a poem, Danny?
Yeah, yeah, come on.
Nothing's finished.
Yeah, I wanna hear some poetry. Come on.
- Come on, Danny, don't be shy. - Read us something you've started.
We got a regular old Shakespeare on board, fellas.
Frilly words there.
- You got a good tone, Jack, heh. - Tone-deaf.
I know that I shall meet my fate Somewhere among the clouds above
Oh, Lord.
Those that I fight I do not hate Those that I guard I do not love
Nor law, nor duty bade me fight
Nor public men, nor cheering crowds
A lonely impulse of delight
Drove to this tumult in the clouds
I balanced all, brought all to mind
The years to come seemed waste of breath
A waste of breath the years behind
In balance with this life, this death
Captain! You're going up. Start engines in five minutes. Five minutes.
