The Deep
Glimmering
Shimmering
Cursed of
The deep
Slitted eyes
Narrow
As the target
Comes into
Sight
Propel body
Forward with
Powerful
Strong
Strokes of the
Tail
Scales of sea
Green glint
Winkingly
Stretching out with
Taloned hand
Fingers reaching
Far, outstretched
Ready to
Grab
The ankle
Of the
Child
Tug!
Pull!
Surprise
Surprise
Dragging down to
The grotto
Below the
Sea
Bubbles
Escaping and
Popping
And the
Sea-chimes
Of human
Bone
Of past
Victims
Grate and
Clash in
The
Waves
