Crunchy Crabs

Frank W. Donovan
1984

I have sometimes wished to be
An unknown crab
Crawling across
The infinite
And somewhat dangerous,
Unbounded seas,
But perhaps
One may encounter
A bigger crab
That can eat you,
Or if bigger crabs
Don't eat smaller crabs,
I'm more than certain
That something else does.
Is this a death wish?
