The Good Faith

The Good Faith !t was a big ship fully automated, the engineers wore white overalls and the deck officers, splendid uniforms, while the ship´s captain sat in his cabin and wrote leaned thing about navigation. the cook was an exception he still had to prepare food and worked long hours, But it must be said he had shiny pots and pans the never burned, So modernity benefitted him too. The sip had no anchor it had been lost in a storm and now They had to do with virtual one few had much faith in, Circling the oceans endless not being able to find a tranquil bay Cast anchor and rest. So it happened then the hip had a black out had no anchor and drifted on to a reef, and there was no life boats the captain said the sip wasn´t sinking his faith in automatic was like a religion for him, but the ship sank under the greedy ship, the crew had more faith in life-jacket and the shore line that looked beautiful in the afternoon.
