A Burtonesque poem (a la Vincent) for Mr. Depp.
Enjoy.
Day in and day out, the press would fuss
While Johnny tried to move from a car or a bus
They snapped pictures and were ruthless as could be
Yet the pain they caused, they couldn’t see
Johnny did not care for such a life
He’d rather live far away from all the strife
If anything he could do, he knew in a flash
He wanted to be a pirate, like good old Captain Jack!
While out to dinner at a nice place
He’d be very kind with a smirk on his face
But secretly he was plotting to loot the restaurant
And taking all the food he could ever want
Or if out with the family on a cruise
While reading the paper and catching up on the news
He desired to take the ship into his own command
While to the crew delivering plenty of demands
One night when he couldn’t go to bed
He had a great thought pop into his head
“Why, this pirate thing isn’t hard at all,
I could start right now, there’s no need to stall!”
And so, he gathered up all his supplies
Stole Van’s eyeliner and put it on his eyes
“Yar!” he yelled with a boyish glee
“I am Jack Sparrow! Worship me!”
He ran out of the house and into the street
And dueled with the various people he’d meet
No one knew who he was, and tried to watch their step
For they didn’t know they were dealing with one very crazy Johnny Depp
