Ocean Defender (vengeance of the ocean spirit pt2)

By Andrew Hide

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

The mighty whaling vessel, charges through the sea, the magnificent giant whale, will soon be history. A harpoon is launched, flying true along its path, but there's an almighty spray of thunder, and the spear is broke in half. The sea Dragon has returned, in time to save the day, no more hunting whales, this is not the way. "Reverse both engines", is cried, as the captain rings the bell, but this creature now before them was brought to bear in hell. By the sword they chose to live, and by the sword they'll die, the sailors prayers go unanswered, as their flesh begins to fry. This mighty metal huntress, no-more will hunt for prey, she's murdered one to many, and now she must pay. All the timbers burning, as the ocean floods the decks, the moulded metal railings, now become a twisted wreck. The captain watches mournfully, as his ship is ripped apart, only in his dying breath does he discover his own heart. This metal murderer of the sea is melted to the core, its skin, sizzling and hissing, heading for the ocean floor.
