Titanic on Dec. 25, 2011

I will write a full and succinct review in the New Year but I must say the first few reads have impressed me, and although the poem, in it's structure does not have an obvious chance to 'achieve a theoretical impossibility' in the fact it is an event which happened, it does give us something new in it's form, and in ways, structure. It's hard to fault the historical elements without first researching the actual sinking of the Titanic, but if it fits, timeline and action wise, plus harbouring the dark undertone of Shakespeare's 'Moral Corruption' in Hamlet, then like it's central character, it could be a future triumph hidden waiting to be discovered. I'll give it five stars for now, but let me sleuth properly before nailing any colours to the mast. SW
