Well here we go with another verse misadventure.
BIVALVE DREAMING *
I am a mollusc
Alive, alive oh
You press your pink
Shell-like to my lips
And I murmur
The ocean’s secret address.
Tears roll like endless surf
Sobbing
Echoing
- Thunder in our empty pockets
I am a bivalve
You are a butterfly
We dance along
the moon’s landing strip
Shimmering in the salty shallows.
Alive, alive oh.
* I am not the walrus!
