Another Titanic Poem by Nelson Vincent

Brick by brick
phase by phase
the rumbles of the first
fast becomes another

Another Goliath
Another David
Another battle
A love-hate tale
Another Titanic


The monkey has gone to the market
It may never return
Let he that hath ears
hear

This day it's raised so high
perfect, well, 'tis so high
phase by phase all way long

One day, the monkey visits the market
With no intentions to return

Truism comes after lies
How do we tell the genuine
since the mask stays put
in another titanic?

The truth is a polygraph
proving conscience and guilt.
The only man who knows the truth
Is he who was present
And watched the crime in place as put

These Dragon toothed lepers
are disguised as cedars
and garmented as men
they stand weirdly talented
in clothes and yards of ten
drawing wearily after them
and singing 'Wanted'

Mother nature,
if you understand me,
forward my letter to the royals
even if forever and ever my letter be
bound by my loyalty
It is recorded as 'To the Royals'
Of course it's no lie, ask Jack and Rose
As in such poetry or prose...
