sinks, tilting
west
towards Puerto Rico,
we put on our orange
life vests.
they're tighter
than they were
when we set sail
four days ago.
we say
a prayer.
someone starts to sing
as the water
rises above
our knees.
the Mirarchi Band
keeps playing on the lido
deck.
it was a fun cruise
while it
lasted.
i'm still clutching
a chicken leg
and a lobster tail
from the third lunch
of the day.
while others, are heavily
drinking.
