woe betide any

who doze on the beach

circling fins

Sharks never stop swimming
if they do, they sink
sharks never stop thinking
nor can they sleep
but their whole lives
are waking dreams
of eating whales
and kraken
and things the world has never seen
not since the bomb that broke the world
65 million years ago

No, sharks did not snatch prey from the air

Don't try this at home or at the beach


Sharks have to keep on swimming
working 24 7, their whole lives
don't you think they get tired?
Never resting always moving
you know they get tired
the only reason a shark doesn't live forever
something eats it
some fisherman throws it down to burn in the sun
or it just gets so tired
it goes for the book
just for a little rest
so the next time you see a shark
swimming over the sand near a reef or wherever
stop it, as a friend
hold it, just for a minute
it will thank you

Sign up soon, if you can, to stay off the waiting list!

Seriously, the second edition of "Lost worlds in Alabama rocks" is fantastic, and it costs three times what the workshop does. You get the book for free, a free lunch, other free stuff, and you get to collect fossils. What are you waiting for?
