Literature Text

In the depths of deep oceans,
Lies a creature with slow motions.
A bizarre beauty, luscious red lips;
Rarely it wakes to move its long hips.

Creeping along the endless sea,
Mysteriously planning its victory
Watching its prey swim in the waves,
Hiding under conspicuous caves.

Enormous, majestic, dancing in the ocean
Waving its arms under the sun,
Drawing circles with graceful motion
Triple hearts filled with deep emotion.

Fearing its predator, it moves in jet propulsion,
Secreting ink with tremor and by impulsion;
Changing texture, achieving camouflage
Resting quietly and doesn't even budge.
We were asked to do a poem in our English class. Ran out of ideas and randomly picked the octopus as my subject.

There may be (well.. there really are) grammatical errors and wrong usage of punctuations D: sorry.

Unique topic. it's pretty good. I've seen pics where an entire octopus put itself into a regular sized coke bottle. I like the last stanza. I just did one about jellyfish on my page.
