Boat
They say without hope
You do not know true despair
This island is my prison
Between U.S and Cuba is where
An entire ocean of blue
Yet to see a ship of cargo
Curse that Mister Kennedy
I hate this darn embargo
No chance of leaving here
Cannot swim 50 mile
A snowballs odds perhaps
Wise to not leave this isle
Living is looking impossible
Man vs. wild escapes the mind
No food, water, or shelter
The elements are not kind
The things I would do
For a full grocery tote
I take that back
All I need is a boat
