Deep delectable siren

Sleeps little to wend her way’s singing

Drags down my body to lair

The mermaid so fair.

It’s okay just an old fish tale. On a scale of 1 to 10 in your vegan state perhaps a low two versus pescatarian 10.

But the deep seeks them

Red-haired siren calls,

In moonlit waters she preys—

Hearts drown, untethered.

Crimson locks streaming,

Whispers of a fated charm—

Deceit beneath waves.

Ocean’s fiery bloom,

Entangling nets of desire—

Silent depths conceal.
