Basking Shark of the Deep Blue

Giant gaping mouth of the basking shark.

Will swallow you whole, down its massive throat.

Dull brown-ish skin, lurking in the dark.

Giant like a car, preying on your boat.

Children screaming at such a horrid sight.

Dagger-like fin, gliding through the water.

Eight metres in size, ready for a fight.

Devil-like body, fit for a slaughter.

Flame-engulfing eyes piercing into you.

Don't be spotted if you want to survive.

Its lust for blood I would not misconstrue.

Don't try and be brave, and go for a dive.

Blessed are we all, this creature be harmless.

These false descriptions are disastrous.
