IT SANK IN THE NOW,
ex-pat down with all hands
seen one Wednesday
in a sinking southern city. It hit the April showers
serving death
en route to Yorkshire,
killing peace and war and
Mary timed it well,
she was the biggest,
longest woman
to float the virgin shore. Oceanus tells a story that's been told a thousand times before, one that's known all around the world - the tale of a passenger liner that sank in the North Atlantic Ocean with massive loss of life. Oceanus tells the story of the RMS Titanic. *** Praise for Eyes Like Lighthouses When the Boats Come Home: Recommended for those who enjoy poetry, or just want some honest language that arrives in an artful way. - J. D. DeHart Dane Cobain gives us raw, disturbing, yet truthful poetry. It may be a bit disturbing, but sometimes the truth can be disturbing. - Chrissy I highly recommend this book for fans of spoken word poetry. - Jeremy Fee *** The latest of poet, musician and author Dane Cobain's free verse books, Oceanus is a Titanic book that explores the legacy that the Titanic left behind. Packed full of wordplay and free association, it's one of the most experimental Titanic books for adults you're ever likely to come across.
