A harsh crack of wood
Slimy, suctioning squelches
Screams from the sailors

Aye, all hands on deck
Ropes burning through deathly grips
Canons fired with haste

The briny water
Choking vulnerable throats
Swallowing shed blood

Gargantuan head
Tentacles of grotesque length
Eyes of the devil

Adrenaline sweat
Brackish waters merge with bile
Death reeks in its wake
