Thanks - I'm glad I took it too! I had one clear intention in mind, and although I was playing on the ambiguity of the metaphor, reading it after it was written, I realised it can easily be interpreted in ways I hadn't expected. That's all the better, and I'm happy so long as the initial concept is there, and ideally first among them.
@ Captain Kellen - That's exceptional, all the more so for being a comment. No need to hide - you should join in proper!
@ Mark David Jordan - I think so, and I'll say for me there does need to be some space for interpretation.
@ sonny - If we can, we often do. It's much harder not to, but could be far better for all concerned, a positive step forward.
@ Jannie Funster - There's that ambiguity again, and it has real value. I don't know if this is one of the best - on balance likely not! - but I'm glad it's inspirational.

Captain Kellen
with a shock
rubbed his brain
he called two rocks
He liked the rhyme
it spoke oh so true
very creative
nice to view
So he left a message
short and sweet
rhyming for CK
made him weak
I'll be in the corner hiding...
CK
Very ambiguous which makes it oh so much better
i wonder if there's anybody who can resist taking that shot..
Master & Commander is one of my alltime favorite movies!! "Eengleesh Whallir. Eengleesh Whallir..."
Which kinda related to this poem, right? See what you have inspired in me? The best poems DO inspire.
Thank you!
