Pest

I think there's a barnacle
On my hull
Causing extra drag
Or it could be loose paint
Probably caused by barnacles
Or maybe old skin is flaking
Not quite off
Barnacles love that
I think I"ll have to search
A little harder, deeper
For barnacle repellent

This poem explores the age old pass-time of scape barnacling. Obviously a metaphor for "clinging rancor" or possibly "oldbodies complaint.
