I, struggle with the current
Pulled, ever slowly under
A deep and a deadly ending
Final breath floats to surface
A dark endless void
As old as it is vast
Grasped in the maw
Claimed in a blinding flash
Pressure pushes down, breaks through bone
Darkness swallows devoured whole
Pallid sheet of pale white skin
Barely held by
Grayed old veins
sinew snipped
As creatures feast
Engorged, it’s as
All things are
Shit and ash
Cycled through
So endlessly
As will be of us all
Fucking dead
And tossed away
Preach some more
As I fucking drown
Feed the God
Of the depths
Tribute to earn
Mottled flesh
Waves will crash
Blood will pour
Behold the might
Poseidon roars
A ghastly way to go
Doused to my fucking soul
A weakened slow struggle
I won’t tread on all night
My fingers rise up high
