Analysis of Ashore We Go
We drop
Our anchor
And ashore
We go
In a little
Boat from
A big boat.
We look
For food
And fresh
Water for
We are
Starving
And dying
Of thirst.
We Find
Food and water,
But lo!
It was guarded
By Monsters.
Then we blow
Our horn
Signaling us
To escape.
After we had
Our fill
Our ship's
Captain will
Come back
With more
Men to defeat
The Monsters.
