coming of age, coat on my arms,
I feel, like Barbarella on the ground,
It’s been long hunk of months, not quite a year
thats a big enough chunk for the fur to feel fixed,
I’m alone in the day, we all alone in the night,
together, settle with the weather and the light,
only get a glimpse of Carina and the Hydras
I dress just fine, skin tight in fact,
for the sea to receive me (skin tight)
for the bite of the seasons
and the bite of the blackfish,
kill time till she finds my wake,
she breaks bread and my seal so the flesh can escape.
even though the first heart beat came to
in the red belly room, warm light brite
fire in the sky on the move,
shadows on the wall of the tomb
cast shapes on the lids of the pup in the blood cocoon,
it took a push from the shore waves,
never knew all the short days,
on the cusp of the crust where the air hole busts
like a crater in the moon dust, thats us,
that under-currency purposeful in its urgency,
below the curtain them urchins scratching the surface clean,
a purple beam, tangled inside a prism piece,
unfurl the banners, expand them to make the systems breathe,
(the 4 blues)
ice from the glacier,
blood from the inside,
light from the everlasting sun
and the gill shine
