The sky is blue, and water wet; So the ocean must be too. Once I sunk beneath the waves To gain a better view:
Pink and spongy; black and scaly; Yellow jelly, cold and clammy; Beady eyestalks glaring From an urchin crusted cave. Clustered tubercles protruding, Searching tentacles recoiling, Pulsing mandibles awaiting; Ever lurking in the shade.
The universe exploding with One billion burning suns, Is empty, void and meaningless When all is said and done. So for those inclined to measure What hue the ocean be: Ignore her gaudy creatures For the darkness in between.
The sky is blue, and water wet, But the ocean – it is black And I fear the vile abyss that is Endless, dark, and black.
