Rajat Kanti Chakrabarty Poet Prose Poetry

When the Ship Sank

(When the ship sank)

When the ship sank I was on deck, my flute
sang a holiday, my legs were trembling like a whale
Cabin sat on whiskers, spills swerved the seas.
Dennis was close hey hey,check the wind,check the wind
Cool like frigidity lady whupped the deck
Metals creaked all hell let loose hulls croaked
Like frump unattached to the muscle of hope.

When the ship sank I was on deck, my flute
sang a holiday, and after a year or so my ribs
found another deck chomped my sea animals
corralled by weeds blue, brown, pink and red
You may say its just a story, well said and sad.

Kelly Deschler November 17, 2014 at 12:18 AM A very haunting tale you have told here, Rajat. Your vivid descriptions give the reader a feeling of being there on that deck. Good work!... I have written two poems about being onboard the Titanic. You might like to read them!
