FISH OUT OF WATER

am I more valid when I am in water I am apt to explore outside my bubble a gurgle of spoken word unknown on my scales the weight of air I swim through the sky the dream scares the girl for me it’s divine ‘fore I reach the pinnacle she’s pinched liquid eyes open to prison of glass

Great use of Suze's apparent virgining properties. Thanks, Kim, for hitting perfection head-on. Aloha, William

I am not familiar with this style of poetry, but you are definitely not a fish out of water when it comes to amazing talent.

Thank you, Paige. As a child I dreamt of fish swimming through the air…an uncomfortable dream.

Thank you, Vijay! In the form, the syllable count for each line must be a prime number.
