    If you watched the video I provided , you?ll know that this so call tragedy could have been avoided.

    The company owners of the ship deserve to go to jail.

This is such a sad thing that happened. It makes my heart hurt for those families that lost family and the ones who used that bridge alot to pass on. I pray for them all. Very good 1-6-1 poem and video. Best wishes in the contest. Teri

An excellent entry for the 1-6-1 poem writing prompt. This is a very strong poem on a hot topic of today. Such a sad tragedy. Good luck in the contest.

    A tragedy that could have been avoided.

    The cargo ship had already experienced serious issues in 2016 in a Belgium port, also in a Germany port and in Chile

    It should not have been at sea.

This was so heartbreaking seeing this on the news yesterday. I had been on the bridge for the first time about a month ago. It just seems so unreal. Hey, I assume your last word is supposed to be splash. You have mixed up letters there. Syllable count looks good.

    Thanks , I edited.

    When I saw the video, it just looked surreal, the bridge crumpled up like paper.

    Every time I turn on the TV or read the headlines some major incident has occurred. I'm tired of reading about disasters, destruction, and death.

    I totally agree. Sometimes it feels like everything is spinning out of control...

    I just provided a better video in the notes section.

    The ship had suffered a series of problems in the last years.

    It had propulsion issues in 2016.

    And when in Germany it scraped and damaged the dock while trying to leave.

    This ship should never have been at sea .
