Seal Immovable

More graceful in full blubber
than a ballroom dancer,
a seal slides down banisters 
of ocean spirals
in ice-cold currents.

Smiling like a cat,
slipping into water,
swimming down and up,
for fish and  krill and squid.
Sunning, sleeping on the rocks,
		I could never push you over.

Seal - immovable.
Seal - so fat.
