'Slavers throwing overboard the Dead and Dying-— Typhoon  coming on', also known  as 'The Slave Ship'-J. M. W. Turner.

What is presently happening on the high seas

between Libya and Italy looks nothing like this.

The ship sinking here was as grand as you'd expect

when The British Empire waived the rules
in a trade which found partners in every port and town.

But the logic of sick slaves being thrown overboard,

still in their chains, by their slavers because the boat

is worth more to insurers without them on it

than their lives were ever worth commercially

to those who would enslave them is being replayed.

As Organized Crime trafficks people for profit

out of the African Continent by filling boats

their insurance is built on how unseaworthy
the boats are-the traffickers take the money
knowing that many of the trafficked will die at sea,
and even more be drowned through their vessel
capsizing because of EU attempts at rescue.

This is the last stage in the estrangement
of those squeezed out by Islamic Anarchy,
using armed manufactured by the west
on one side and mafia capitalism telling lies
about the ease of life in mainland Europe
that immigrants were to expect on the other.

Europe is not called 'The Old Continent' for nothing.
