divers beware of the beast
My legs gone

lungs being crushed of air

I wait for death on the tongue of the beast



Eyes black as coal

its belly white as snow

I wait for death on the tongue of the beast



A dead seagull near my shoulder

A hook pierces my eye

I wait for death on the tongue of the beast



Water flows in water flows out

I slip deeper into the maw

waiting for death on the tongue of the beast



My tank now empty

my time finally here

into darkness i will now sleep forever

on the tongue of the beast
