Black and blue with multiple shoes
Clogged feet dancing on river-washed prudes
Jittering in flat shoals, wide broad hills
With a couple of glances, you could have them all killed.
Skippy green bruises where dust clouds smashed
In high-concentration pinnacling as a gash
A self-eating wound is a gift from the Gods
As the crown of creation hangs six miles off.
Neptune and Venus, whose razorblades sold
Straight out from Rome, packaged up with her soul
To harried wet palms on a Hollywood sand
Cracking as grease pours in heaps from their hands
Into the ocean, poisoning the sea
Jaws packed his bags, fled as fast as could be
To sit on a sofa bed in the abyss
Staring up at the legs of the overground fish
Coming ashore with their newlyfound limbs
At the pace of red tide, fish are walking again
Melting into the grains' open burial mounds
No fish of mine will be buried 'neath ground.
