I wrote a Star Trek filk-ish thing? The poem equivalent of a filk?

[(Anonymous)]

I wrote a Star Trek filk, except it's not for a song, it's for a poem. Basically, it's a 23rd-24th century version of "Sea Fever" by John Masefield. I didn't want to post it to my journal or fic profile so I thought I would show you guys to see what you think of it.

I must go out to space again
To the sea behind the sky
And all I ask is a silver ship
And a star to steer her by.

And the drive's thrum and the core's throb
And the bridge-lights' choir
And the nimble surf on the burning tides
Of a thousand wells of fire.

I must go out to space again
For the call of the last frontier
Is a dreamer's call, a siren's call
To bewitch the curious ear

And all I ask is the warped space
With the star-tails streaming.
And the blue veils and the red lace
Of the gas-clouds gleaming.

I must go out to space again
Where none have laid their eyes
To see the backs of the Pleiades
In an alien planet's skies

And all I ask is a soft black sea
With foam of starlight pale
And the wild cry in the velvet hush
Of a friendly stranger's hail.

OP

Thanks!

I like it! Man, I wish filk songs/CDs were still a thing; this seems like something that would be cool as a spoken word track on a filk song CD.

You going to post it anywhere else? :o

I have heard some great Star Trek filks too, from Leslie Fish etc! I suppose it wouldn't sound good spoken aloud unless I had a really good speaker to do it though.

I don't know if I'll post it. Maybe on AO3.

[loracarol]

Yeah! Good speakers are great; one of my fav memories is this guy telling us the poem of the Highwayman. It was wonderful.

If you do, could you link it? Or at least link me? :o

I like it! It's quite pretty and has a nice flow to it.

I'm glad you think so :)

I liked these lines:
And all I ask is a soft black sea
With foam of starlight pale
Good visuals.

Thank you! I'm glad you think those lines worked.

Wonderful. Preserves the spirit of John Masefield's poem, but is still original.

<3 I'm very flattered.
