Breach
I'm underwater
my gills suck
yeah- they suck plankton in
through fine mesh
I'm a vestigial hippo
now permanently water bound
my communication
is at frequencies that say it all
my communion wafer
tastes saline
but somehow
I surface to say my things
to you all
so now
do you understand
my attempts at love
my dagger of high velocity
into your temporal lobe
do you see
la cascada
of
the free information of life=
skrill
plankton
photosynthesis
the blow hole on the top of my head
makes for extra
breathing
besides the gulps of fresh air
that i maintain thru mouth
motions
whilst breaching the outside world
