Shipwrecked

clipart of a sinking ship.

inspired by Fandango’s One Word Challenge (FOWC) of 29 September 2021, composition.

When they took to the boats for their lives,
They were joined by a man, oversize,
And his stout composition,
Did not help their position,
When his bulk made the lifeboat capsize.
