I Am Shark
A.J. Huffman
Feral
predator, hiding
in waves of unconscious.
You will never see me coming.
A shadow, imperceptible in the light,
more comfortable in submerged
darkness, I breathe carnivorous habits.
All teeth and skin, I wait, patiently for contact, then I
strike.
Feral
predator, hiding
in waves of unconscious.
You will never see me coming.
A shadow, imperceptible in the light,
more comfortable in submerged
darkness, I breathe carnivorous habits.
All teeth and skin, I wait, patiently for contact, then I
strike.
