I once set my sights upon a woman.
Thar she blows!
As she dove under the ocean blue,
Majestic.
Fire the forward harpoon!
The slack line goes taut
The end tied round me with
A square knot I learned from
Weekend Camper.
Under the sea she goes...
I follow.
She sees me with bitter lenses,
Death circles.
She rolls and rolls.
The line wrapped round her
Til we are eye to eye.
Surface.
Splash!
We roll and roll and roll and
Roll
Until my bubbler ceases bubbling.
She shrugs me off,
The taut line goes slack.
