An Extraordinary Acrostic

Exciting voyages aboard xebec, with its sharp lateens, travels the salt seas. Rapacious corsair’s keel across a world of plunder. Ocean’s opportunity calls riding waves, rowing calms. Danger braved in storms and squalls, nightime’s peaceful starlight air warm and steady abaft rolling gently on the swell yawing to the rudder’s pull.

I am an ardent fan of my favourite pastime, which is shouting at the wireless. I have mostly my own teeth and can still get myself to the bathroom without too many accidents. I prefer my wine both copious and red.
