on flooded beaches

sea life strewn upon the shore

gasping their last breath

–

the moon hangs above

clouds pass like windswept petals

blackening the sky

–

out upon the waves

a ship wrecks and no one knows

corpses crowned with foam

–

deep sea songs echo

cries of the damned harmonize

drifting on the breeze

–

their daughters weeping

wives, embraced by their brothers

moaning whilst they sink
