Harpooned

aeolian mist of Bretagne as the orange sun cannonballs into the ocean depths. shrillness of sound on shepherd peaks, trembles down on panic-grass. sprites and sirens toss’d from their sleep. the earth violates, the sea surmounts. trident stabbed whale — hearty breakfast in the fisherman’s bed. 11/22/2020 Make Me Laugh with Some Humor Sponsor: Tania Kitchin

I find some pity for the poor whale, though I'm sure it makes a hearty breakfast. ~~
