sharks for arms

The men with sharks for arms
are going dream to dream
seeking you.

They're maiming and injuring
everyone
who gets in
their way.

In these dreams,
it's real pain like
nothing you've felt
before in a dream.

In shock,
missing parts
in bites and bits, and
slipping to black from blood

loss

- only to wake up
fine! But
you can bet,

people are going
nuts on social media
all about it:

Who ARE you? Why
is the Shark-Arm Army
so bent on tracking you

down?

The Shark Armers
don't know your name of course,

but
they
sure
give a thorough description.

And it’s everywhere.

People who know
you are excited.

An atmosphere
of conspiracy
surrounds you,
but

the temptation, as
you can imagine, is
or must be

terrible.
