The battle

Five days out on an infinite sea, they prayed for calm on anocean free,
But the surface of the water was indicating some disturbance.

The raft was hurled by and unseen source, two hundred feet,
With frightening force
And a dark mass rising showed to be a giant porpoise

Rising out of the angry sea, towered the creature's enemy,
And so the two sea monstrers closed for battle

Crocodile's teeth, lizard's head, bloodshot eye, stained oceanred
Moving close to their raft's side, the two men prayed as one andcried
"Save me, save me, save me, save me"

The serpent's fight went on for hours, two monsters soaring uplike towers
And driving down to the depths in a single motion

Suddenly, the serpent's head, shot out of the water bathed inred
And the serpentine form lay lifeless on the ocean

Crocodile's teeth, lizard's head, bloodshot eye stained oceanread
Battle won, a victor's pride, the three men tanked the Lord andcried
"Praise God, praise God, praise God, praise God".
