TITLE (EDIT)
Death By Poseidon
DESCRIPTION
This is not so much a straight-forward poem as it is a puzzle, or a mind game. It presents two possibilities to what REALLY happened in the bulk of the poem. After you've read the poem through, read the first word of every line going down. Then read the last word of every line going down. You should notice that the mood will change with the different twists... what do YOU think happened?

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
16 years old. Relatively moody, very curious and nosy. Always looking for all the answers. Do I necessarily find them? No. But roads are for journeys, not for destinations.

Death By Poseidon
Samantha Carter

Shallow promises of dinner
Under the moon on a love boat on still
Water, cold night air and warm
With steaming coffe. The steaming
Little oyster decorate gently,
Breath of salt and seaweed on a plate
Left forgotten in a red
Rush of intensity. And
Of this meal we drink champagne with
Bubbles to make merry the night. For love
One thing and love for another will forever
Last eternity on a briny sea; the whipping waves
Scream their embracing farewell "Goodbye,
Lost to me, goodbye!" So flows the tide now.
