Claimed after a wager, a quarrel, and some knocked-out teeth
Intricate traditional patterns please the eye
Fit for royalty
Snug, if a tad unwieldy
Believed to connect to the gods and offer spiritual protection
Designed for comfort in the hottest weather
Made to lend respectability
A mark of your standing, a call to fortune
The sea is all you have ever known
Every endeavor must be of heart and soul
