Mermaid Tech
Listen to Kate reading her poem ...
Mermaids have big problems using phones –
distortions in the underwater tones.
The air and ocean waves get mixed together,
and it's even worse in wild weather.
They get these sort of funny, fuzzy wails –
even louder than their flicking tails.
No, they can't communicate by phone.
The best way is to message them by drone.
distortions in the underwater tones.
The air and ocean waves get mixed together,
and it's even worse in wild weather.
They get these sort of funny, fuzzy wails –
even louder than their flicking tails.
No, they can't communicate by phone.
The best way is to message them by drone.
