Me a fish & you my sea Your waves washed me Onto the beach The birds they came & pecked my chest My gills got filled With earthly breath I gasped and flipped I flopped & squirmed My fins went limp My scales, all torn (We go as fast as we are born)
I looked up high Beyond the wind & prayed to have Just one last swim The sun went dim The wind did blunder Your waves create and swept me under I gasped again But in reverse Submersed and cursing every bird My fins are ripped I cannot swim I float along your currents whims I asked you why You pushed me out To watch me bleed struck with a knout You calmed and said Simply to me You are my fish And me, your sea
