SHARK

She waits until I’m broken down

Her words like knives, I frown

Again we play our little game

Remembering now who is to blame

Kids like us, we always drown

The End of All Things

Seldom do people recognize their flaws

Habits form, few know the cause

Always be weary, trust very few

Recognize your past coming for you

Killing us all slowly, we’ll pause

Lonely Knight

Secretly, I loved him deeply still;

Heartstrings attached, seemingly against my will.

And yet he only wanted war.

Remember him, I thought, no more.

Knights know only how to kill.

The Hunter in The Ocean

Slinking through ocean’s deepest watery grave,

Hiding, waiting for that single knave,

Attacking with brute unexpected maniacal force,

Relishing in its prize, tasty of course,

Keen mind, killing soul, blood lust.

Ready to place their giant marks

shark Fin

Spectre of the Old Blue Sea

Hunted for Man’s glee and currency.

Ancient but now near it’s extinction

Reeling the whole ocean to desolation,

Killing and cutting its family tree.

Question for You

Smoke wafts from your burning mouth,

Having fun without me no doubt,

A flame flickers at the end,

Remind me, am I your friend,

Knowing that it has gone south?

Human Sharks I Have Known

Sinewy shark emits his beastly vibes

Hovers over torn husk and circumscribes

Assails and senses scent of blood

Rips out bones, encases in mud

Killing my soul as he imbibes.

Found

Sunkissed skin, smelling like the ocean,

Hearty laughs filled with strong emotion.

Arguing and teasing, quite an extrovert,

Resisting and wary of being hurt.

Keeping an eye out, holding devotion.

Captain “Killer” Cuxley

Swarthy old sailors warbled drinking shanties

Holding their bottles like crooked atlantes...

All at once, in the dark,

Roy the deck boy yelled “Shark!”

Killer Cuxley ’bout wetted his panties!
