A classical fool: a rabbit, a grasshopper.
Easily fabled as deaf, as tool.
Pride saps strength, the moral goes;
it's the view down the nose, at any length.

distance=privilege
On a beach begorged by seagulls
glows a fish with teats,
a seacow.
opens, pours a thick white messglows a fish with teats,
a seacow.
She is dead, her body
the froth laps.
She is there, I haven't killed her,
but I cannot fully witness. I'm ashamed
but still resistant. What's to say?
The truth? I love the dead. I do. It's said.
Save their intolerable red.
