KRAKEN FEARS NOTHING
Christopher McKraken here
and there is nothing that I fear.
I’m bigger, stronger, tougher, faster.
One might say – the Ocean Master!
Hurricane or dumb tsunami?
I’m not cryin’ for my mommy.
Fear no whale, or snarling shark,
creepy trenches dank and dark.
Sneaky, snarky mermaid queen,
torpedo blasting submarine.
Pirate with a sharp harpoon,
creature from the black lagoon.
Calving glacier, serpent swarm,
turny-churny lightning storm.
Lava flow, Poseidon's spear.
All things that I’ll never fear.
Wait! What’s that? Okay, I lied.
Better hurry up and hide.
Terrifying! that’s what this is...
Kraken Girl with slimy kisses!

Ha! Hilarious ending! But I loved the set-up of every possible other monster of the deep! Great rhythm & rhyme, too! Thanks, David!
ReplyDeleteClever as always, David! Good to know that even the Ocean Master has vulnerabilities. LOL
