i have drank the milk of the ocean
i inhaled it’s briny breath
i have sunk below the surface
i wandered through its depths
swept away by the undertow
to live amongst the deep
pulled to bioluminescence
where the weird will always creep
i know now the treasures untold
i know its deep dark secrets
for i keep my own away from light
as i live down deep beneath it

i have drank the milk of the ocean
i inhaled it’s briny breath
i have sunk below the surface
i wandered through its depths
swept away by the undertow
to live amongst the deep
pulled to bioluminescence
where the weird will always creep
i know now the treasures untold
i know its deep dark secrets
for i keep my own away from light
as i live down deep beneath it
