The tray comes out
I choose my first 
I lift the shell to my mouth
Splash! A foamy spray of brine smashes against the rocks, sending arcs of water far onto the shore. I chew a few times, and swallow with the juice. The tide recedes back...

So you are choosing Rocky Mountain Oysters over Meatballs
You love to eat them from a zip loc bag at the mall
You grew up in the deep south  eating these odd things
For instance, you choose chicken feet with toe nails instead of chicken wings
You said...

Memories of stolen weekdays by the water..
Oysters on the half shell and made to order..
Your hair in the sun made my heart warm and race..
My desire I couldn't hold as I slowly kiss your face..
So many all around us, but our hearts drawn close..
Conversations I...

You can eat them either raw or fried
Great flavor is something not denied.
Inside a shell is where they hide.
You have to swim deep in the sea.
In long beds is where they will be.
There the black shells rest on the sand.
It is quite a job harvesting...

Mountain oysters so tasty until 
You get knowledge from mean cousin Bill.
But before I found out
Gave them enormous shout

There is a stall down by the dock
Selling the freshest seafood stock.
Creatures in shells, caught just offshore.
Live oysters there for eating raw. 
Each one sealed up and watertight.
To prise open it is a fight.
Down in one, living flesh slither.
Sudden burst of ocean flavour.
Only these ones...

A walrus and a carpenter were sitting on a beach.
They had eaten a bunch of oysters within their reach.

Words Grow Oysters Go Down

Words grow on barbed wire
On acid rain with sugar droplets
They sit on foreigners tongues assembled
Numbered and fermenting
Difficult to pronounce

Stay heavy. They end there, untouched
Some words...

Several sirens singing on the shore
Called Calypso’s crew for them to adore.
Willing witless wanderers;
Oblivious obeyers, 
Which waves washed through a rocky tidal bore.

Svelte sisters sieved the sailor’s gore
That the salty surging sea cast ashore.
Boiling briny blunderers
With olive oil and oysters
And feasting until they could eat...
