Titanic Disaster Poem by Spock the Vegan

Blood red was the cloud
When the Titanic did depart
An omen in the sky
That no one took to heart

She was the largest luxury ship
That ever sailed the brine
Fancy fixtures everywhere
The quarters were divine

They said she was unsinkable
Until she faced the test
And so it was unthinkable
Her construction was the best

The night was black as a raven's beak
When the lookout did exclaim
But no effort was made to slow the speed
When the reports of icebergs came

First officer ordered ‘Hard to Port'
But it was way too late
The iceberg ripped the ‘impenetrable' hull
She had met her terrible fate

Five waterproof compartments leaked
And the water in did flow
It soon was found that the front of the ship
Was headed down below

As front went down, the rear went up
Two blocks into the air
A mighty groan and tearing caused
Crew and passengers to despair

A mighty splat rang out in the frigid cold
When the Titanic broke in two
It was a very frightful time
For the passengers and the crew

Lifeboats had to be employed
The owners thought they had plenty
But she could carry sixty-four
But carried only twenty

Captain and crew were not well trained
As they sent the boats to shore
A lot more people could have been put in
They could have carried many more

The sea was as cold as a witch's nose
For those that couldn't swim
Fifteen-hundred people lost their lives;
Statistics that are grim

The moon was heaven's porthole
For those who they couldn't save
Their spirits wanted to go up,
Their bodies went to a watery grave

So what caused the Titanic to sink?
Pride, arrogance, slothfulness & greed
And maybe some other type of sin?
Let's learn from past mistakes, indeed!
