Looking For A Feed

Deep in the ocean
far out at sea,
is a white pointer
looking for a feed.
He's not fussy,
he doesn't care,
just something
to fill his stomach
which is bear.
Up on the surface
is a fishing boat
hauling in their nets
trying to stay afloat
taking all the food,
the shark would eat,
there are rules in nature
that we must meet,
for we are all alive
and we must eat.
