An Alibi That Sank Poem by Aniruddha Pathak

I tripped and fell into a life boat,
And for no reason made a scapegoat,
The ship captain cavilled
When on the mishap grilled;
An alibi to note, what a quote!

I tripped to end up in a lifeboat, Francesco Costa Concordia, the captain of the ship said when asked, why he abandoned his sinking cruise liner wherein many passengers died, instead of standing tall to save other lives as all captains are expected to do.
