Shrimps standing on elegant tiptoe
There's little left but fatty blubber clinging to it's bones.
No vestige of sunlight can penetrate as far as this.
It's graceful shell contains gas filled floatation chambers, that control it's depth.
Crabs can detect the faintest of tastes in the water

And here, too, more crustacean, but quite different species
Those strange leg-like appendage are feathered, to stop it from sinking.
A baby sailfish, fifteen centimeters long
on one of the smallest krill, shrimp-like crustaceans.
Now the shearwater can dive down on them, descending to twenty meters or more
To raise their young, seabird worldwide seek such remote islands.
Marine snow, detritus from the creatures swarming in the sunlit waters above.
The inhabitant of these bustling communities may grow at speed
Around these peaks invigorate by daily sunshine
so, it bide it's time.
In places, volcanoes have erupt to build great submarine mountains.
These are squat lobsters, clad in furry armor
Clouds of sulfides solidify into towering chimneys, as tall as a three story house.

Frigatebirds spend months continuously airborne at sea

A mistimed strike by one sailfish, could fatally damage another
Bioluminescent bacteria shine from pockets on it's arms to confuse it's predators.
In places, it's riven by great fissures, from which superheated water
At four hundred degrees this scalding cocktail of chemicals
Spider crabs, a meter across, still pick at the last putrid remains.

Whale sharks cruise on regular habitual routes
Other predatory fish are lurking nearby.
