Harmless Crow

An ocean, a calm vibrant ocean The moon resting until it's his time to wake once more and give light to night No tides, no illustrious tides nor waves to hinder the calm of this ocean to disturb the depths of the sea floor nor the creatures it holds It is there, there summons a shark a silent shark, a small basking shark mulling about, pacing back and forth in between it's giant walls at first for thought, at first for a purpose, at first for a reason but as time passes the moment is lost the reason is gone and sits this shark with the ability to swim like lightning sits this threatening shark who is just as harmless as a starfish fighting for control trying to remember what purpose it has trying to remember anything anything short term but there it runs an undersea rabbit as fast as it can be and somehow the shark, sits a tortoise wanting to do something but just sinks further and further hitting the bottom floor A dark abyss, a darkness only lit by the sun fading ever so slowly... 'What's the point? ' he says frustratingly as he closes his eyes What's the point...what's the point...
