Sink or Swim

By megaprime81

If your ship is sinking,
It's best to abandon it
If your ship is sinking,
You'd better swim for it

If you're waiting for a rescue,
You'd better be sure
That waiting is much better 
Than trying to swim for shore

If your ship keeps sinkikng,
You better jump off of it
If your ship crashes hard
No life boats left,
Grab a life preserver
And make a good swim of it

If you reach dry land,
You can celebrate
Surely not before then
Or else you'll be too late
To make it to the shore
You might just drown
If you're coming back for more

    cool write, can't forget about the sharks. They ensure that making it back to shore is just a fantasy ... 10
