Sideways Travel
Sideways Travel
Tiny crevices, they take shelter and make their home in,
wandering around to scavage on garbage brought up from the ocean's floor to eat.
Brightly painted red by their original maker,
they work their way home on their tiny, spindly legs
that together walk sideways,
as their beady little eyes face forward.
You surely squint with pain,
when you get pinched with their tiny little claws,
they will cause your aching skin to severely bleed.
They leave their homes in groups,
and prefer to travel as a comedy troupe with their sideways act
rather roam along the shores alone.
Life would be so drab,
without our side walking red crab.
