Son of a Beach
thinking only we
being human but
not humane
were the
only
species able to do
what some say is
the unspeakable
but now i know
because I've
heard the songs
sung knowing
now why they
sound so sad
as the words
and the whales
travel across
the ocean
blue to
tell
all that they no
longer want to
splish splash
take a bath
but wail
their swimmingly
goodbyes by
committing
suicide by
beach
