My Ocean

Everybody everywhere is swimming in my ocean, Some are swimming on the surface, Some are discovering my depths, Some are drowning. It is not my idea to care, To stop my sharks from snare, Let my sting rays go wild, When someone loses his mind, Ask the squid to lie down, When he is foraying alone with a frown, Call the pitcher to behave herself, Not to poison the ones who delve, Too much into my mystery, Later making it history, Drown! Devil, Drown Fast! You don’t deserve to last, In my boundless ocean, pure But I will allure, So foolish swimmers beware… It is not my idea to care.
