Leviathan Lucidity

And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea — Rev. 21:1 Satan is king of the sea When he was cast out of heaven, his star fell into the midst of the deep And the dreaded armor-scaled whale arose, with destroying breaker waves An unholy submarine terror is he Jellyfish can fatally sting, and Great white sharks are devouring deadly But the biggest, baddest fish in the sea is Leviathan ... he’s the one who swallowed up Jaws, baby Moby Dick ain’t nothing but a mere goldfish compared to this dark-scaled monstrosity This hulking behemoth rules the sea — King Poseidon ain’t nothing but a cabin boy, his trident weapon is just a plastic fork toy Mythical tales drawn from the deep fountain fears of man It’s frighteningly obvious indeed, Leviathan rules the sea King Neptune ain’t nothing but a fable, a man-made up story water balloon I’m sorry to burst the bubble, all you doubters Mythical tales drawn from the deep fear wells of man Yes, Leviathan is bad as they come ... he will drag you 20,000 leagues under the sea, my doubting daughter and son Leviathan ain’t no tall tale; he will swallow you whole, then vomit your soul into the bowels of hell It’s scary obvious to me, Leviathan rules the sea Wake up from your watery sleep, people Satan is real ...when will you believe?! No worries though ... in the end, God prevails over the Devil This is so comforting to me — for in the new earth there will be no sea
