algal bloom (not for you, bismarck)

who knows what red tide is -

that bait not fresh. it smells of that;

how an ever renewed ocean of water floats

your boat, is a mystery when your heart

looks of lead, sometimes they think it dead.

while theses are not nearly abstract or literal

enough for this game - something so clear,

represents some things oblique and opaque -

all rest fidgety, though. who is it that you write for?

tell them. they want to know and they understand

if you don't know. don't eat dead fish,

though it is rumoured they like the taste -

but rather let it absorb both ways,

an osmosis of realizations, through

non-presumption. it's not too late

for each to wisen up at this hour
