The Renewal and Cleansing

The stench of decay

The memories replayed

The outcome relayed

As a movie well-played

Malibu Beach, the place it all began

There, in that bundle of the sunshine was a girl called Megan

Her body fully tanned. Oh! The guys wanted to meet her

Her eyes so golden you could almost read it with a meter

But she wasn’t interested in all her glory, she just wanted to relax

 

And then there was Kranus

He was the kind of guy you couldn’t say no to

He had on him the perfect tan and muscles

His smiles made the ladies hearts ripple

 

Yes, you know how this story goes…

Boy meets girl, they hit it off

He surfs like hell

He makes her blush

He asks for her sweetness

She blows him off

He seeks a comeback and says

“Babe it’s your loss…”

 

But this story does not end there…

 

You see, Kranus hasn’t ever been told no

So for him, this was a low blow

His guys said to chill it 

“just go with the flow bro”

But you see, he didn’t listen

He had to stay on the top row

 

As he went for drinks that night, he formed a plan

One that would make him king of all the lads

 

…or so he thought…

 

And then he saw her enter

Watched her all night

With as much patience as he could suffer

He laughed as loud as he could muster

But nothing he did could stop his hunger

 

And then she got up and left

He saw her walk into the night’s crest

She walked on and inhaled the salty scent

Of the sea and all that it had left

And as she walked, she thought she heard footsteps

She looked around and thought she’d misheard

 

He pounced on her out of nowhere

She was at a dark bend and here, people couldn’t hear

Not her shouts nor cry and plea for help

Not her prayer that he’d run short of air

Kranus showed no mercy even at her tears

He laughed as he thought “another fish in my net”

 

This is what her mind replayed as she looked at the man crying for redemption at her feet

As she watched with the corner of her eyes, her son as he ran to his feet

He looked just like the man crunched low and weeping in defeat

And she decided to let him go and clean away his filth
