Dark Shadow

Dark shadow
coming at me from the deep blue
slowly gliding
inch by inch
metre by metre
bigger and bigger,
shaped like a grey aeroplane
Dark grey stripes running down its side
Open mouthed,
Rows of teeth staring into my soul
Moving cold like a serpent
Through the salty water
The ocean carries me to the surface
And I feel small like a baitfish.
