‘God save thee, ancient Mariner!
From the fiends, that plague thee thus!—
Why look’st thou so?’—With my cross-bow
I shot the ALBATROSS.
Gustav Doré illustrating Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Great stuff.

my favorite poem
it inspired one of my tattoos
Ancient Mariners get hungry too! I still got my sea legs (drunken sailor).
Always have been a fan of Gustav Doré. But I prefer the sea shanties: Captain Kid and What do you do with a drunkin sailor.
I prufer Rime of the Hip-Hop Mariners.
