RAISING TITANIC
Just to feel your soggy bones, justify your agony, because legacy your
only lifeboat, betrays humanity, and everyday brings me closer to your
salvation, and every hour wreaks one more expectation, I need to know
that there is someone to blame, for the infamy that blasphemies your
fame.
I wana grab the planet by the collar, I wana do something gigantic, not
swallowing my pride, but raising Titanic.
She’s like that first love I lost before I knew how to lose, I hate to be
stuck with a choice that I didn’t get to chose, I imagined this perfect
love now it can never be, the carcass of my dreams floating on the
bottom of the sea.
My stomachs debt is growling, my appetite is manic, I can be reborn
with necrophilia, by raising Titanic.
Her name is Titanic, and I will never let her go, and one day I will
collect, all that she does owe, I will never forgive you, everybody’s
laughing at me, but you will be mine again someday, and I will reclaim
my treasure from the sea.
Just to put you back on that pedestal, where you belong, so I don’t have
to doubt your faithfulness, forgive your wrong.
My futures wit is in denial, my past in panic, but the oil will flow back
into the blood, in raising Titanic.
May-june98
