    What is the poem/shanty "My Jolly Sailor Bold" about?
    Okay I know it was in the latest Pirates of the Caribbean movie but I've been so obsessed with the poem and I've always wondered what the poem is about? You can find it at these websites:
    JSBlog - Journal of a Southern Bookreader: My Jolly Sailor Bold, 1891
    My Jolly Sailor Bold | L'esprit de l'escalier

    Google the title plus the word "explication" (without quote marks) to find sites that discuss the meaning and origin.
