Under the ocean is where I dwell, but because I am sneaky, you can’t always tell. A living creature I may not be, but look inside me, and you’ll find men of the sea.

I may move freely, as the way the board shall choose. If I am captured, you risk the chance to lose.

Without telling a story, I can make your eyes all teary. You might find me appeeling. So don't hesitate to give me a ring.

I swore to shield your precious eye, to block the dust that dares to fly, but oops, I slipped! Now here I dwell, a tiny ninja causing hell. You blink, you tear, you curse my name. Yet with every flutter, I’m the same.

At some times I'm just a tasty treat At others I fix what covers your feet
