Indesccribable Sea

In this indescribable sea discrepancy is the principle of inhalation and exhalation.
 Fishes are judged by the color of their scales and fins...
where tilapia and her son seldom perish like an ice cube melting in a glass of Scotch whisky.
In this sea, boundaries are created by ethnics and viruses, and types of mouth angles.

In this sea, tilapia explores sea surfaces with passport and dread.
Her son prevails through subtle picking between: shark, octopus, and whale;
a living pessimistic life as empty as cloudless day.

But, both young, old, weak, and strong bear this  common line of break of breakthrough in their national anthems.
Their backs, foreheads, scales and fins bear this common tattoo of morning star and companionship.
