Uncle Ivan

Waves crashing down sing the sound of his demise
Salty waters rise. His eyes read the end

Suddenly, he finds himself sat on the head of a giant squid-like beast

Hey you what are doing sailing these waters?
Haven't seen your kind around for years

The young man responds
If you're gonna eat me, no need to be friendly
I'm so weak it won't take me long to break

Don't stray your path, what you're searching for will come
There's no need to run. It's fine to wait

Lift your head, all the birds are flying home
Now you're not alone. Follow their lead, save your energy
