What passing-bells for these who die as cattle?
— Only the monstrous anger of the guns.
Only the stuttering rifles’ rapid rattle
Can patter out their hasty orisons...

"doing poems"? Who does a poem? Don't you write a poem?
They're poeming all over the aircraft carriers!
Ugh, I got meter all down my whites
Hey, you shouldn't make fun of congressmen with severe learning disabilities.
So that's what the R stands for is it?
I did the dankest poem the other day, shit had me fuckin literate out of my mind
In the article, his quote mentions reading them over the boat PA systems. Probably just jealous of their literacy.
::: spoiler ⛵ Something something ship not a boat. Come at me, squid-bros. :::
Former squid and I still call everything a boat just to see what different people say.
Everyone says boat. Unless they're calling someone shipmate because it's hilarious.
Kinda wish I'd been on a ship just for the experience of it but the closest I got was a grudging admission about being under the "Department of the Navy" umbrella and a dangling carrot of a MEU if I'd been willing to reenlist. Sorta regret not doing it but I'd had my fill of the routine daily bullshit and was ready to move on. All the Navy guys I knew with the first name "Doc" were cool as hell though, the rest were probably at least all right.
I got about a week's worth of boat time. Definitely not for me glad I just joined a department of the navy too.
BIG SHIP LITTLE SHIP
CARDBOARD BOX!
Meet us behind the bike sheds after school, we're going to do some poems.
