MS Explorer

Fate cuts her ice into this sailing ship
Surreal but sincere moments loom at hand
Passengers with lives are losing their grip
Upon Nature and God's revealing plan
Waters drown the numbness of their souls
Surrendered fear within some rescued heart
Live now so this great story can be told
Of courage and futility; like art
Sinking, drowning to her final demise
Destruction and submission caught on tape
An altered sense of dread before our eyes
As life becomes no more than fading shapes
If ships are made of steel, but can go down
What chance do we all have before we drown?
