Overlooking the View

By megaprime81

Sonar and radar
Check for a pulse
But can find nothing
The hour of request 
Befilled its second guest
And the atmosphere
Evaportated in his presence

Searching the sea
In black and red and blue
Sweetest ignorance
Has filled the ship's sails
Overlooking the view

Atop a cliff
A man observes
But sees nothing
The eyes he has now
Are covered with oysters
And are opaque 
As the jackel howls in delight

    This is obscure and visually entertaining .. I enjoy the depth of it. Yet, it has that disturbing factor too.. well done :)~
