Under the Sea

appeared in dreamy trance
resembling Calypso, a maiden
drifted up
from the valley beneath the waves

shaking off her winter’s sleep.

standing in the ocean
half drowned
in flooding gathering rivulets
crashing and strutting,
her coral crystalline eyes hid
impish glint conquering one’s soul.

phantasmagoric
calm
silhouetted partly
by the waxing moon beam
the great maiden slowly
tightened her grip,
pulling the ship closer
like fish caught in net.

tossing and dabbling
in the shifting waves
suddenly she wailed out
like a Luciferean Prima Donna
releasing loud ringing,
screeching noises of glee.

transfixed and ravished
in a wondrous spectacle
sailors started to scream
but can hardly be heard
midst the uncanny mayhem.

tearing out their hair,
begging forgiveness
in horrific despair
in timeless desperation all seemed half-dead.
closing the rendezvous
with a smirk
she abruptly tumbled into the patient sea
vanishing instantly.
and stranded the sailors stood
with momentary death swoop
only sound of waves were there to
break down their silent unexplainable thoughts .
