Cornflakes*
are the required breakfast
for a kraken
when it wakes.
It takes
a large bowlful
to even begin
to satisfy the craving
that a kraken has
when from its slumber it rises;
and, no surprises,
but it abhors the
snap, crackle, and pop
of humans
when into its maws they drop.

*other breakfast cereals are available, but the Kraken neither cares, nor worries that that is so.
