A story about a boy, the beach, and a shark-monster that just wanted a dryskin friend. And then things get really weird.

Poetry: the best words in the best order.

― Samuel Taylor Coleridge

“If you are a dreamer come in.

If you are a dreamer, a wisher, a liar

A hoper, a prayer, a magic-bean-buyer.

If you’re a pretender come sit by my fire

for we have some flax golden tales to spin.

Come in!

Come in!”

― Shel Silverstein

For a fairly young kid I've seen a lot of strange things,

like a calf with three heads and the creepy that brings.
