Sweet Mermaid

young sailor is besotted by beautiful siren from depths of the sea she is giddy with a giggle that glides down to his toes with great glee just below the surface two hungry sharks are waiting for her to lure him in his type A blood smells tasty, they know for he has a small cut on his chin. sweet mermaid is too pure to do the bidding of these two sharks with teeth. she bids him good-bye and dives way down, below and beneath. Jim is sad to see her leave, for he has no idea she was part of a plot. she dives past those hungry sharks as if from a cannon she’s shot.
