Let any fish who meet my gaze learn the true meaning of fear
For I am the harbinger of death
The bane of creatures subaqueous
As I cast into the aquatic abyss
A man, scorned by this uncaring earth

Wriggling, writhing
Struggling to surmount
The mortal pointlessness
That permeates this barren world
I am alone
I am empty
And yet
