Submarine

Upper lid shut
All worries out
I dive to meet my target
I will hit it no doubt

I stalk my prey
All he can do is pray
He will go down before, "Oh! Lord" he can say
He will see what will be his last day

God help him, if in my sights he comes
All that is left of him will be blown up lumps
My strike will put him in a tight jam
'Cause I am a Submarine- Yes I am.

Yeah, Manoj, way to go! You seem to be getting better and better. Keep it up. This is one terse bit of poetry which packs in a punch. Liked it very much. Gives good visual imagery of the stalker and the stalked. Predation! kc
