Should I write

A little Benthon, at the bottom all alone

It knows no dawn, never knew there is one

Wondered! why was it so dark? ‘like the dead, darn!’

Silhouette at a span, it jumped to attention

Bright and like a thorn, grew a tiny little line

Calm, serene in motion, the thread moved towards the benthon

Hid under the floor of ocean, it gaped the glow that passed on

‘Is it real or just a notion, for it never happened in an eon’

Went with the current with no élan, ensued the enthused benthon

Following the lifeless one, the benthon’s answer was known
