they found a new whale graveyard

 they found a new whale graveyard

deep beneath the sea

unimaginably deep to you and me

the Diamantina fracture

don’t ya know 

and lunching there are brittle stars

and bone-boring worms

and chemosynthesis-based bivalves

so now ya know ya know

that the graveyard round the corner

just up the road from you and me

is pretty mundane monumentally

plain dead dull you see

but ya know that don’t ya

know why

because they found a new whale graveyard

deep beneath the sea

i have a sinking feeling

that it’s not for you and me

and that’s a pity
