Link (Bones 1)
in the skeletal belly of the whale
i sat in awe and reverence,
there hung the fishy tale
of how we came to be
in the skeletal belly of the whale
i dreamed a void of severence
from winds that charged the sail
upon the thriving sea
in the skeletal belly of the whale
primeval shards of relevance
turned my lustre pale
and cut my spirit free
in the skeletal belly of the whale
i bowed my head in penitence
and all to no avail
became as one with me
