Jealousy


Sharks

The weaker tenants of the main

Flee from their rage in vain,
The vast menhaden multitudes
   They massacre o'er the flood;
With lashing tail, with snapping teeth
   They stain the tides with blood.

I'm Jealous of this poem, Why? Because it takes something so simple, and just a random object. And gets so in depth with description. It is so short, but straight to the piont. Also the word choice is different, but not confusing. 
They massacre o'er the flood
