Stranded on a tropical island
Scurrying desperately to and fro
Dip a toe in freezing sea
Suddenly cannot breathe
Dive hastily underwater
Oxygen gushes in
Look down and see fins
No longer hands or fingers
Not skin but dazzling scales
Wild waves, swimming rapidly
Wrinkle Hornbill
Out of thin air
Opens mouth wide
Swallows whole
Gush down throat
Smash into stomach wall
Try to scream
No sound heard
Bash and thump
Try to escape
Eyes open
Just a dream�¢ï¿½�¦
