Ocean Hunter
My life is the hunt, my hunger endless, voracious, and vile.
My dorsal splitting the water is feared more than my toothy white smile.
My names’ Great White, Hammerhead, and Bull, foretell stoutness and guile.
My clan is born in countless different shapes, sizes, and forms.
We can hunt alone or in numbers as ravenous packs and swarms.
Sailors for centuries have feared me more than ocean storms.
I’ve been dreaded by those who traverse the sea for countless years.
In my era, I’ve witnessed more than a lifetime of sailors’ tears.
Featured in “Jaws,” I’m the entity of children’s scary nightmares.
I am shark, the most feared predator inthe deepest oceans blue.
Spotted by my prey they flee, but they know it’s time to bid adieu.
It’s only a matter of time before I have something juicy to chew.

I love the words you used to describe the shark. Really awesome!
