Aboard a Sinking Ship

Anchors away

As they say

Moored in place

At an awful pace

As my mind slowly drifts astray


Rocking back and forth

While trying to prove your worth

Trapped on a sinking vessel

They all expect you to wrestle

So you don’t drown in mirth


“Ahoy” shouts the captain

Cheery in spite the walls he’s trapped in

“Your work does not stop”

“No matter how the seas chop”

He calls from his cabin lined in satin
