Sea Lions
Among the waves, sea lions glide
diving, swimming side by side
on pier and rock and windy beach
they pile together each on each,
positively thigmotactic
and never needing chiropractic
Sleek of skin and loud of bark
they avoid the Great White Shark,
but never contemplate creation
or humanity’s predation,
they indulge their every whim
to fish and snooze, snooze and swim
When the world has made its final run
completing revolutions round the sun
sea lions will not stress at all
at the dismal fate of this earth ball,
they’ll fish and swim, swim and snooze
not concerned about what they’ll lose
No need to watch their blubbery weight,
any size to them is great,
diving to depths of 900 feet
raw fish to them is quite a treat,
the sea for them is like a gym
where they bark and snort, snort and swim
They sleep 12 hours, just barely tryin’
-I wouldn’t mind being a sea lion.
