Of boats and such.

I once fell in love.  With nothing.  Nothing was a kind mistress.... Requiring nothing and wanting nothing until the day I wanted something.

OOPS

The Titanic
Was built to sink.
A modern marvel,
Destined for seabed slumber.
Careful men, women and children
Cried aloud
Certain of innocent demise,
But were ignored,
And sent to breath deep
Death's cold body
And share a fateful story
With a metal goliath
Far more memorable.
I'm sure a question was asked,
But none remember
The point of it,
As the defeat of man
Felt far more important.
And death
Was an innumerable
Crushing weight.
