The Prisoner Under the Sea

Published: Sept. 27, 2019, 10:16 p.m.

He was tossed overboard the breaking ship.  It was night.  The torches from the ship were drowned.  The stars and the moon were blocked by storm clouds.  The only light to see by was lightning.  It was by chance that he surfaced that first time.  He struggled to tread and to see anything he might hang on to.  Lightning flashed and he saw nothing but waves.  They pushed him up and pulled him down.  And one of them loomed above him.  In vain, he pumped his arms and tried to swim away.  The wave descended and swallowed him.

A sailor, tossed overboard during a storm and fated to drown, is rescued by a people who live on the seafloor and who make grand plans for him.
