Rather Bleak Ending To a Wednesday

A cuttlefish swallowed my house the other day.
He ejected his inky black fluid and we could not get away.
The local newspaper came out and had a heyday.
Interviewing and photographing the monster that you may all say…
Was doing what comes natural in a regular cuttlefish way. 
Rather bleak ending to a regular Wednesday.

I like how understated and 'routine' this (crisis of an) event is. Well done! … And thanks for the introduction to cuttlefish! :) gw

You are so welcome. I love reading up on all kinds of fish, insects, woodland, jungle and forest creatures.
