Aqua man

Oceanus! You slowly spin
to keep in sight the Earth within
the spiral of your bailiwick
where tidal locks will not unstick...
as if the linch had fused the pin.

It's quite the gravitation trick
except when seas have us as sick
as shark soup with a rancid fin,
Oceanus.

And I don't know where to begin
with shark soup vomit on my chin!
I'd rather be a lunatic
Than seafood gourmand heretic
clueless about the beauty in...
Oceanus!
