Rising from the sand at low tide, The shipwreck’s spars, brown wet, decaying Reaching like skeletal fingers, grasping For one last piece of the breaking daylight Tentacles of seaweed, woven Wrapped around decaying planks Anchoring it firmly To Davy Jones’ Locker Barnacle encrusted planks Lie twisted, turned, unnatural Frozen in a final plea of mercy Before white tipped monsters Crashed across the bow, Splitting, tearing masts Sending it to the murky depths
Written after viewing a ships carcass beneath the waves
