Gargantuan Prawns

crawling at dawn.

Covering the luscious forest-green peninsula.

Plump yet pleasantly moist 

from the tepid atmosphere.

Their formidable opponents, 

humankind.

Pudgy stomachs 

growling.

Ready to devour

Their expertise evident.

They pluck the prawns

right from their habitat.

Like ice from a cooler

a true masterclass

Later, 

They twist their spigots

Releasing the scalding liquid

Onto the gargantuan prawns

They cover them in Old Bay.

Along with many other delicacies. 

Whatever they can muster.

Boiling the prawns,

allowing them to absorb

the exquisite flavors.

Jaws will soon be opened

ready to devour. 

The Prawns with true power.
