Sense Sonnet - Chiller

 Hand Signal

Surfing in the ocean I be

Surf boardless underwater and

I see a shark is circling me.

So need to make it understand

That I am not a foe but friend.

And as a friend should get a pass.

A signal I do need to send,

Impress this shark and save my ass.

In "West Side Story" the sharks were

A gang and so I just need show

The right hand signal, and for sure

The shark, impressed, will let me go.

My bad, fatal mistake of mine,

I flipped the shark the wrong gang sign.
