Under The Sea
Sinking with every step
Salty taste of the quiet, aqua water
Glorious creatures past by as bubbles follow
Crystal clear water as cold as ice
Deeper and deeper the floor goes
Stronger and stronger wind catches me
Krill knocks my face
STOP!
Electrical wire ZAPS!
Sharp shells poking my bare foot
Oscillating, lurching waves
Seaweed swaying
Colossal shadow appears
Dark Heaven
Big Rumble
As big as a city
Giant whale logging above!
