There Is a Hole in the Sea

There Is a Hole in the Sea

There is a hole in the sea, they say,

A silent break where the waters sway,

A tunnel carved through the ocean’s deep,

Where earthbound aliens hide and sleep.

Not of the sky, nor born of the stars,

They walk among us, yet stay afar,

Slipping through tides unseen, unheard,

Speaking in looks, instead of words.

The ships that vanish, the lights below,

The whispers tangled in undertow—

Are echoes left from those who flee

Through the hidden door beneath the sea.

What world awaits under the sea?

A place where aliens do not hide?

Or just the depths, dark and cold,

Keeping the stories never to be told?
