untitled

Through the mist a looming figure,
Creation of god, most awesome giver,
A fearsome monster
chilled as a cocktail,
All hands on deck,
the engine's about to fail

The waters calm before,
now scream thiundering in fear,
off wreckage interrupting their silky surface,
and metal shards in what once was clear

The waters with their surface black and foamy,
watch as the mighty monster
immersed in waters, that now seem loamy,
tears apart this insolent intruder

Death's a mercy,
pain is hell
Only hears the sound of terror,
rings not the angel's bell

Save our souls they cried,
Their death was in mercy
before the pain they died,
the monster it felt pity

Collision was first,
then calamity
As hell began to thirst
Satan's fiery city,

now filled with ice and water and stone,
debris of steel and iron,
torn human flesh and crushed human bone
No ambulance, no siren

The waters swallow one and all,
Blackness reigns once more
Moonlight it shines on water's silk,
all along the unseen shore

Monster of mystery, such power, such greatness,
Some call it the iceberg though most fear to name,
Such a wild creation of nature and god
merciless to trespassers, never to be tame

Okay... everyone... I wrote this because I was on the phone with Meghna, and felt like writing a bit of poetry... so I asked her what to write about. I guess she was reading something about an iceberg, because thats what she told me! Write about an iceberg! So this post is basically an on-the-spot poem, written out of the blue!
