Eels of Kalapana's Queens Bath

"Kalapana Queens Bath was a hole in the ground filled with brackish water (salty seawater mixed with fresh mountain filled rainwater) and host to living mysteries," ... by The Poet.

where hunting dogs bark 'neath swaying palm trees,
as seconds of droplets count down our waterfalls,
awake by

Sonnet to the eels

Those tender eels you rescue by the shore
bring you empty news from the deep;
they aptly sing your sunken score,
vivid sounds from the liver of your ship.

You rely on your Sunday best to warm
your sins, fins and skin, but the heart...
the heart is scattered like the swarm
of pebbles that tear your feet apart.

Far, you glance at

Let’s be eels, 
Let slip into their hands,

Let’s be eels,

My Hovercraft Is Full of Eels

I'll try to tell you without my usual cant
that all I wanted was to go sailing with
Sherry Saturday morning but I can't!
My hovercraft is full of eels!

The watchman phoned when I was lying  
in bed to notify me of this.
I was shocked to find he wasn't lying!
My hovercraft is full of eels!

My good-will has
