A Surprising Time

A chance shall come with surprise,
Underneath the ocean of anxiety and repetition.
Fishes as large as mountains fling
Their fins and all at the moon at night.
Strict parents of theirs mock me
As I am an onlooker and foe.
Friendship has accused me of sin,
For sin is doubtful a worry,
Worries are against the worry
Of the actual ocean.

May dice be flung in the night air,
To swallow up fish and other animals of the ocean
As the sea.

A chance has a can of beer
But oceans replay their audience,
Liking the living from the waters,
Speaking like silver plates
And messy times.
