Spears of Death

NARWHAL

Spares of Death

Fear.
Eyes tightly closed,
I am singing me a lullaby.
Fall Asleep, 
I tell myself.
Fall asleep,
lest one of these lighting rods of ugliness 
plunge it's terror into my heart.
Like angels of death they snorkels around me.
It's a dolphin!
No, it's a whale!
It's a massive ugly creature.
with a spear of death in its head.
Ugly!
Beautiful!
Awesome!
The huge oceans!
Indeed the fittest place 
for these contradictory pods of terror.

I have a few that I wrote last week but the boss has to edit them then my son has to decide it he will allow me to use it and he is the hard one. According to him it don't matter if I wrote it 30 years ago or its yet to be written it is his. He is 15 and very self assured. I told him when he goes to college next year I'll be free again after 15 years, he told me to keep dreaming
