Sharks Are The Worst

Viscous vicious voracious
In the blue belly of horror
Where monsters swim
Lash laugh leave and return
Maybe see them
Or worse not
Unstoppable either way
Between here and safety a distance
A despair all its own
Too far too murky
Not even stories survive this
Death and pain and mystery
Swallowed thoughtlessly

-T. Weeks
(A response to fears)
