At Sea, On That Cruise You Dreamed About
Where else could one enjoy midnight buffett,
until dawn, if we wish? Only at sea:
these liners are the height of luxury.
(One moment . . . Cheerio, there, Stateroom Neighbor.)
Why bring up, now, that countless others labor
too long and hard so we may live this way?
My only fear is some financial panic---
that kind could bankrupt us in one quick day.
Beyond that, what other catastrophe
can threaten us? Oh, look---yonder---the sky:
some sudden flashes just now caught my eye.
What?---meteors?---lightening?---Steward, I say
what is that? Oh, yes, fireworks on display.
What ship? Precisely---R.M.S. Titanic?
